User-Centric Modeling of Online Hate Through the Lens of Psycholinguistic Patterns and Behaviors in Social Media
Hate speech in social media is a growing problem that reinforces racial discrimination and mistrust between people, leading to physical crimes, violence, and fragmentation in world communities. Although previous studies showed the potential of user profiling in hate speech detection in social media, there has not been a thorough analysis of users’ characteristics and dispositions to understand the development of hate attitudes among users. To bridge this gap, we investigate the role of a wide range of psycholinguistic and behavioral traits in characterizing and distinguishing users prone to post hate speech on social media. Considering anti-Asian hate during the COVID-19 pandemic as a case study, we curate a dataset of 5 417 041 tweets from 3001 Twitter users prone to publish hate content (aka hateful-to-be users) and a corresponding matched set of 3001 control users. Our findings reveal significant statistical differences in most dimensions of psycholinguistic attributes and online activities of hateful-to-be users compared to control users. We further develop a classifier and demonstrate that features derived from user timelines are strong indicators for automatically predicting the onset of hateful behavior.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Transactions on Computational Social Systems focuses on such topics as modeling, simulation, analysis and understanding of social systems from the quantitative and/or computational perspective. "Systems" include man-man, man-machine and machine-machine organizations and adversarial situations as well as social media structures and their dynamics. More specifically, the proposed transactions publishes articles on modeling the dynamics of social systems, methodologies for incorporating and representing socio-cultural and behavioral aspects in computational modeling, analysis of social system behavior and structure, and paradigms for social systems modeling and simulation. The journal also features articles on social network dynamics, social intelligence and cognition, social systems design and architectures, socio-cultural modeling and representation, and computational behavior modeling, and their applications.
