Abstract

Recently the use of computerized text analysis tools to assess an individual’s linguistic, emotional and psychological characteristics has exploded in the field of empirical psychology. As a result, information about what people convey through their words can be swiftly and reliably extracted and analyzed. The key purpose of this research work is to analyze text data to assess linguistic and emotional characteristics with the help of computer-assisted text analysis tools. The analysis employed widely available text and sentiment analysis tools, Empath and LIWC. As text data, children’s storybook reviews were analyzed in this work. These reviews are written by the children for the children. Empath and LIWC tools helped to measure the reviewer’s sentiment, analytical ability and cognition level. Finally, by calculating the Pearson correlation coefficient for the selected variables, it is inferred that Empath shares a high correlation with LIWC.
