emojis_sentiment: Emoji Sentiment Data

Description

A slightly modified version of Novak, Smailovic, Sluban, & Mozetic's (2015) emoji sentiment data. The authors used Twitter data and 83 coders to rate each of the the emoji uses as negative, neutral, or positive to form a probability distribution (\(p_{-}, p_{0}, p_{+}\)) (http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article/file?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0144296&type=printable).. The sentiment score is calculated via the authors' formula: \(\frac{\sum{(-1*p_{-}, 0 * p_{0}, p_{+}})}{\sum{(p_{-}, p_{0}, p_{+}})}\).
