This is not a question:

We used an emotion-evaluated corpus consisting of 10 000 English sentences from 7 genres. We applied a specific phonemic decomposition based on the phonetic transcripts. The result of the applied principle component regression showed that the phonemic content is very strongly related (r = 0.96) with the ratings of emotional valence (positive-negative emotion), provided by readers. We designed an online experiment that aims at evaluating are the discovered dependencies valid out of the corpus and how... all this depends on the native language of the reader.

We will be grateful, dear colleagues, if you find time to assist this emotional sound-symbolic statistical analysis by participating in the online experiment here:

It will, unfortunately, take you about 20 minutes.

The experiment is horrible - reading eight texts and deciding how to group them depending on your feelings. The texts are one page long!

But we have no other possibility than to ask colleagues for scientific assistance.

Now - the question is this one:

Could you, please, find 20 minutes to participate?

Thank you in advance!
