The polarity effect of evaluative language

. - 2022
Abstract:
Recent research on thick terms like 'rude' and 'friendly' has revealed a polarity effect, according to which the evaluative content of positive thick terms like 'friendly' and 'courageous' can be more easily cancelled than the evaluative content of negative terms like 'rude' and 'selfish'. In this paper, we study the polarity effect in greater detail. We first demonstrate that the polarity effect is insensitive to manipulations of embeddings (Study 1). Second, we show that the effect occurs not only for thick terms but also for thin terms such as 'good' or 'bad' (Study 2). We conclude that the polarity effect is indicative of a pervasive linguistic asymmetry that holds between positive and negative evaluative terms.
