Highlights

This chart allows you to analyze emotions exhibited in text about a chosen topic, or topics relevant to text exhibiting an emotion by comparing their sentence counts and most significant sentences in a table. It works well for datasets that include references to key topics of interest such as a survey about remote work or a meeting about employee wellbeing.

This chart will help you if you are interested in:

• understanding how people feel about key topics,
• identifying and comparing the frequency of topics mentioned when an emotion is expressed, or the frequency of the emotions expressed when a topic is mentioned,
• identifying examples of sentences in a dataset that represent key topics and emotions.

Parameters

• The Find sentences expressing drop-down menu allows you to select any SALLEE emotion This converts to the Find sentences discussing drop-down menu when selecting any topic from a taxonomy.

• The Sentence Framework drop-down menu allows you to choose the framework or taxonomy from which the emotions or topics will be displayed in the table. These co-occur with the chosen emotion or topic in the above drop-down menu.

• The Sentence Emotions drop-down menu allows you to choose any emotion(s) you want to display in the chart. If you choose SALLEE in the Sentence Framework drop-down menu, this will be the Sentence Emotions menu. If you choose a taxonomy from the Sentence Framework drop-down menu, this will be the Sentence Topics menu.

  note

  All emotions/topics are displayed if none are chosen in this drop-down menu.

Selecting Highlights

You can control which highlights to display in the table. Highlights found in both the table cell and in the Select sentences to highlight dialog list are sorted by decreasing relevance, and the top two highlights are displayed by default.

To enable highlight selection:

1. Click the Enable highlight selection icon at the far right corner of the UI.

   

2. Click the Select highlights icon that appears next to the highlight sentences.

   

3. In the Select sentences to highlight dialog box, uncheck any of the highlights to prevent them from displaying in the Highlights column. (You can also add more highlights to display — it depends on how many sentences express language that are considered highlights. These sentences will be available to select or deselect in the Select sentences to highlight dialog box.)

   

4. Click Confirm.
