A test was made of the generality of the connotative meaning scores of evaluation, activity, and potency in a dictionary of the 1000 most frequent words in English that has been used as the basis of a computer system to measure the expression of emotional tone. This was done by correlating those scores with the values for evaluation and activity given for words also found in two independently created dictionaries, one based upon adults' ratings and one upon ratings by children. In replicated findings reported by the authors of the dictionary for adults' responses support for the generality of evaluation scores was more strong than that for activity scores. For the ratings by children the generality of both evaluation and activity dimensions received strong support.
对一本包含英语中1000个最常用单词的词典中评价、活动和效价的内涵意义得分的普遍性进行了测试。该词典已被用作一个计算机系统的基础,用于测量情感基调的表达。通过将这些得分与在另外两本独立编制的词典中也能找到的单词的评价和活动值进行关联来完成此项测试,其中一本基于成年人的评级,另一本基于儿童的评级。在该词典作者报告的重复研究结果中,成年人反应的评价得分普遍性的支持比活动得分更强。对于儿童的评级,评价和活动维度的普遍性都得到了有力支持。
