A custom survey for collecting sentiment expressed towards tweets written in Czech.

Sentiment Survey

This project implements a simple sentiment survey. Respondents are shown a series of tweets and asked to determine the amount of positive and negative sentiment.

Tweets are picked randomly from a CSV file (which is not made publically available). Each tweet evaluation is stored in another CSV file for further analysis. Following file paths are used:

• ./data/tweets.csv for input data
• ./data/result.csv for the sentiment evaluation results

This sentiment analysis survey is a part of my dissertation research which focuses on using social media data, sentiment analysis and topic modeling as decision support tools for municipal decision-making.

The survey is indended for respondents from Czechia so the interface is in Czech.
