[Corpora-List] Emotions in texts: ANEW vs. discrete emotions

[Marc Brysbaert]

Alex,

thx for your interest. What I would try first, is see whether some  
mileage can be made by looking at the emotion profile across texts. In  
particular the negative pole of the valence criterion seems to be  
underdefined, given that it can relate to any of 4 basic emotions.

Best, marc
