Additional information

<22> Originality: Our earlier work explored how a writer's affective state (emotion, mood, personality) is reflected in their text. This paper showed how readers can detect some emotions (eg sadness) from very short online texts. Linked work showed that for other emotions (eg fear), machines outperform human judges.

Significance: Most widely-cited of three linked papers in 2008. Work has led to grant proposals with emotional expression at core (eg FP7 ARNIE proposal 601035).

Rigour: Linked papers in strong conference venues (CSCW, CogSci, SIGCHI), eg this was in CHI 2008: 22% acceptance.
