Spanish Emotion Lexicon (SEL) contains 2,036 words in Spanish that are
associated with the measure of Probability Factor of Affective use (PFA)
with respect to at least one basic emotion: joy, anger, fear, sadness,
surprise, and disgust. It was marked manually by 19 annotators (scale: null,
low, medium, high) and certain thresholds on agreement were implemented.
Example of the results, see the table. It means that, say, for the word
abundancia (abundance), 50% of annotators chose medium and 50% chose
high values.
Word Null[%] Low[%] Medium[%] High[%]
abundancia (abundance) 0 0 50 50
aceptable (acceptable) 0 20 80 0
acallar (to silence) 50 40 10 0
A new measure for each word is proposed: Probability Factor of Affective use
(PFA). It is based on the percentages presented in the table. Note that PFA
is 1 if 100% of annotators relate it to the high value of the association
with the emotion, and it is 0 if 100% of annotators relate it to the null
value. So, intuitively it has very clear meaning: the higher the value of
the PFA is, the more probable the association of the word with the emotion
is. Example of SEL word list:
Palabra PFA Categoría
abundancia 0.83 Alegría
acabalar 0.396 Alegría
acallar 0.198 Alegría
