ObjectivesWe hypothesise that patients have a positive sentiment regarding biological/targeted synthetic disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (b/tsDMARDs) and a negative sentiment towards conventional synthetic agents (csDMARDs). We analysed discussions on social media platforms regarding DMARDs to understand the collective sentiment expressed towards these medications.MethodsTreato analytics were used to download all available posts on social media about DMARDs in the context of rheumatoid arthritis. Strict filters ensured that user generated content was downloaded. The sentiment (positive or negative) expressed in these posts was analysed for each DMARD using sentiment analysis. We also analysed the reason(s) for this sentiment for each DMARD, looking specifically at efficacy and side effects.ResultsComputer algorithms analysed millions of social media posts and included 54 742 posts about DMARDs. We found that both classes had an overall positive sentiment. The ratio of positive to negative posts was higher for b/tsDMARDs (1.210) than for csDMARDs (1.048). Efficacy was the most commonly mentioned reason in posts with a positive sentiment and lack of efficacy was the most commonly mentioned reason for a negative sentiment. These were followed by the presence/absence of side effects in negative or positive posts, respectively.ConclusionsPublic opinion on social media is generally positive about DMARDs. Lack of efficacy followed by side effects were the most common themes in posts with a negative sentiment. There are clear reasons why a DMARD generates a positive or negative sentiment, as the sentiment analysis technology becomes more refined, targeted studies could be done to analyse these reasons and allow clinicians to tailor DMARDs to match patient needs.

The purpose of the project is to identify common difficulties that learners may face and to understand their emotions as they progress through MOOCs. MOOC is an abbreviation for the Massive Open Online Course and the research deals with the data from ten different courses from Coursera. The data is used to extract pieces of text that students have made. Then, those certain texts are required to be sent to Google Cloud Natural Language API. This app allows users to get a sentiment analysis of a text. The main goal is to assist instructors with monitoring MOOC to make it more efficient and easier for students to progress since it assists to improve the courses.  To achieve this, the first step is to gather all the data from each of the courses. Then use programming to dump all that data into one big database. The program that is used here is called Pycharm and user is required to use python and sql to aid him in dumping the data in the database. Once the database is created, coding is done to only select out the pieces of information that are needed. These texts should be where students make comments or ask questions. Next, the data is queried to send these texts to Google Cloud Natural Language API. Here, the program breaks down all the sentences to only be just words. Then the program is going to categorize each word according to whether its connotation is positive, negative or neutral. Next, all the words are sorted according to their connotations. The overall sentiment depends on the emotion that has the highest number. If positives and negatives are all balanced out then the sentiment is neutral. Sentiment scores range from -1 to 1, where -1 is the most negative, 1 is the most positive and anywhere near 0 is neutral.  Positive sentiment scores indicate instructors that students are doing well on their course and neutral sentiment scores indicate that the course is balanced out with difficulties and easy tasks. However, negative sentiment is the most important to instructors since it indicates them that students are struggling and they need to improve the course.

BACKGROUND The development and approval of COVID-19 vaccines have generated optimism for the end of the COVID-19 pandemic and a return to normalcy. However, vaccine hesitancy, often fueled by misinformation poses a major barrier to achieving herd immunity. OBJECTIVE We aim to investigate Twitter users’ attitudes toward COVID-19 vaccination in Canada after vaccine rollout. METHODS We applied a weakly-supervised aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) technique on COVID-19 vaccination-related tweets in Canada. Automatically-generated aspect and opinion terms were manually corrected by public health experts to ensure the accuracy of the terms and make them more domain-specific. Then, based on these manually corrected terms, the system inferred sentiments toward the aspects. We observed sentiments toward key aspects related to COVID-19 vaccination, and investigated how sentiment toward “vaccination” changed over time. In addition, we analyzed the most retweeted/liked tweets by observing most frequent nouns and sentiments toward key aspects. RESULTS After training tweets using an ABSA system, we obtained 108 aspect terms (e.g., “immunity” and “pfizer”) and 6,793 opinion terms (e.g., “trustworthy” for the positive sentiment and “jeopardize” for the negative sentiment). While manually verifying/editing these terms, our public health experts selected 20 key aspects related to COVID-19 vaccination for more analysis. The results showed that the top-ranked automatically-extracted aspects include “risk”, “delay”, and “hope”. The sentiment analysis results for the 20 key aspects revealed negative sentiments related to “vaccine distribution”, “side effects”, “allergy”, “reactions” and “anti-vaxxer”, and positive sentiments related to “vaccine campaign”, “vaccine candidates”, and “immune response”. All these results indicate that the Twitter users express concerns about the safety of vaccines, but still consider vaccines as the option to end the pandemic. In addition, compared to the sentiment of all the tweets, the most retweeted/liked tweets showed more positive sentiment overall, especially about vaccination itself. When looking more closely, the most retweeted/liked tweets showed an interesting dichotomy in Twitter users, i.e., the “anti-vaxxer” population who used a negative sentiment as a means to discourage vaccination and the “Covid Zero” population who used negative sentiments to encourage vaccinations while critiquing the public health response. CONCLUSIONS This study is the first to examine public sentiments toward COVID-19 vaccination on tweets over an extended period of time in Canada. Our findings could inform public health agencies to design and implement interventions to promote vaccination, and get closer to the goal of ending the pandemic.

BACKGROUND News media coverage of anti-mask protests, COVID-19 conspiracies, and pandemic politicization has overemphasized extreme views, but does little to represent views of the general public. Investigating the public’s response to various pandemic restrictions can provide a more balanced assessment of current views, allowing policymakers to craft better public health messages in anticipation of poor reactions to controversial restrictions. OBJECTIVE Using data from social media, this study aims to understand the changes in public opinion associated with the implementation of COVID-19 restrictions (e.g. business and school closure, regional lockdown differences, additional public health restrictions such as social distancing and masking). METHODS COVID-related tweets in Ontario (n=1,150,362) were collected based on keywords between March 12 to Oct 31 2020. Sentiment scores were calculated using the VADER algorithm for each tweet to represent its negative to positive emotion. Public health restrictions were identified using government and news media websites, and dynamic regression models with ARIMA errors were used to examine the association between public health restrictions and changes in public opinion over time (i.e. collective attention, aggregate positive sentiment, and level of disagreement) controlling for the effects of confounders (i.e. daily COVID-19 case counts, holidays, COVID-related official updates). RESULTS In addition to expected direct effects (e.g. business closure led to decreased positive sentiment and increased disagreements), the impact of restriction on public opinion is contextually driven. For example, the negative sentiment associated with business closures was reduced with higher COVID-19 case counts. While school closure and other restrictions (e.g. masking, social distancing, and travel restrictions) generated increased collective attention, they did not have an effect on aggregate sentiment or the level of disagreement (i.e. sentiment polarization). Partial (region-targeted) lockdowns were associated with better public response (i.e. higher number of tweets with net positive sentiment and lower levels of disagreement) compared to province-wide lockdowns. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates the feasibility of a rapid and flexible method of evaluating the public response to pandemic restrictions using near real-time social media data. This information can help public health practitioners and policymakers anticipate public response to future pandemic restrictions, and ensure adequate resources are dedicated to addressing increases in negative sentiment and levels of disagreement in the face of scientifically informed, but controversial, restrictions.

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the entire world, resulting in a tremendous change to people’s lifestyles. We investigated the Korean public response to COVID-19 vaccines on social media from 23 February 2021 to 22 March 2021. We collected tweets related to COVID-19 vaccines using the Korean words for “coronavirus” and “vaccines” as keywords. A topic analysis was performed to interpret and classify the tweets, and a sentiment analysis was conducted to analyze public emotions displayed within the retrieved tweets. Out of a total of 13,414 tweets, 3509 were analyzed after preprocessing. Eight topics were extracted using the Latent Dirichlet Allocation model, and the most frequently tweeted topic was vaccine hesitation, consisting of fear, flu, safety of vaccination, time course, and degree of symptoms. The sentiment analysis revealed a similar ratio of positive and negative tweets immediately before and after the commencement of vaccinations, but negative tweets were prominent after the increase in the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases. The public’s anticipation, disappointment, and fear regarding vaccinations are considered to be reflected in the tweets. However, long-term trend analysis will be needed in the future.

This systematic literature review aims to determine the trend of lexicon based sentiment analysis research in Indonesian Language in the last two years. The focus of the study is on the understanding of preprocessing used in lexicon-based sentiment analysis studies in the last two years, the lexicon used in these studies, and classification accuracy. The main question in this SLR : what techniques of lexicon based sentiment analysis will provide the highest accuracy. The most widely used preprocessing methods in previous research are tokenization, case conversion, stemming, remove punctuation, remove stop word, remove or replace emoji and emoticons, and normalization or slangword conversion. The sentiment labeling process in previous studies calculated based on the comparison of the number of negative sentiment keywords with positive sentiment keywords in one sentence. The maximum accuracy from previous study is 90%. The most widely used lexicon is NRC and Inset which is a lexicon dictionary in Indonesian. Knowledge of this can be used to propose a better model for lexicon based sentiment analysis in Indonesian Languages.
