David Garcia‘s talk at the annual convention of the Society for Personality and Social Psychology, SPSP2018, taking place in Atlanta, USA, March 1—3, 2018.

Abstract:

 

We study the relationship between political behavior and affective states through a Dimensional reformulation of Affective Intelligence Theory (DAIT).

 

Using large data in from online discussion forums, we find that discussions characterized by low affective potency and extreme valence are more polarized and less cognitively complex than discussions with high potency and/or less extreme valence
