Moral concerns are differentially observable in language
Published in Cognition , 2021
We examined the connection between language usage and moral concerns. We collected a large dataset of Facebook status updates from English-speaking participants, along with their responses on the Moral Foundations Questionnaire. Our findings indicate that individuals' moral concerns can be identified through their language usage, although the strength of this relationship varies across different moral dimensions.
