Dictionaries#

LIWC-format dictionaries from published research. Most are binary (each term either belongs to a category or doesn’t); fetch_wrad returns a weighted dictionary (referential-activity scores). fetch_scope and fetch_psychnorms slice a single column out of the SCOPE / psychNorms metabases as a weighted, single-category dictionary.

dictionaries.fetch_emfd()

dictionaries.fetch_empath()

dictionaries.fetch_leeq()

Fetch the Lexicon for Evaluation of Education Quality (LEEQ).

dictionaries.fetch_mystical()

Fetch the mystical experience dictionary.

dictionaries.fetch_psychnorms(stem)

Fetch one lexicon column from psychNorms as a weighted dictionary.

dictionaries.fetch_scope(stem)

Fetch one lexicon column from SCOPE as a weighted dictionary.

dictionaries.fetch_sleep()

dictionaries.fetch_threat()
