Recently, evaluative language data has become more accessible with social media’s rapid growth, enabling large-scale opinion analysis. However, surprisingly little research examines the relationship between personality and evaluative language. To bridge this gap, we introduce the notion of evaluative topics, obtained by applying topic models topre-filtered evaluative text from social media. We then link evaluative topics to individual text authors to build their evaluative profiles.  \nWe apply evaluative profiling to Reddit comments labeled with personality scores and conduct an exploratory study on the relationship between evaluative topics and Big Five personality facets, aiming for a more interpretable, facet-level analysis. Finally, we validate our approach by observing correlations consistent with prior research in personality psychology.  \n1 Introduction  \nSharing opinions has always been rooted in people’s daily habits, but nowadays, it has scaled up with a plethora of user-generated texts on social media (Lee and Ma, 2012) . Opinions, as dispositions toward specific entities, can be the key to understanding human behavior. Oftentimes, thereis a need to predict sentiment or stance toward a particular target of interest, making opinion analysis useful in marketing research, social and political sciences, and recommender systems, to name a few. Moreover, analyzing how we express our opinions, i.e., the linguistic aspect and the psychological disposition of the opinion holder, is crucial for various downstream tasks, such as personality analysis and mental health prediction.  \nIn public communication, among other situations, people use linguistic resources known as evaluative language (Hunston, 2010) to express their attitudes. Thompson and Hunston (2000) define  \nFigure 1: An illustrative example of mapping user statements to evaluative topics, i.e., topics induced from evaluative texts. Based on the prevalence of such topics, we construct an evaluative profile of each author. We then measure the correlation between each author profile and personality facets, such as artistic interests, assertiveness, intellect, and imagination.  \nevaluation as a cover term for unified phenomena of certainty and goodness/desirability, and evaluative language includes every expression of the speaker or writer’s attitude or stance towards, or feelings about the entities or propositions. As evaluation is associated with psychological disposition (Malrieu, 1999), evaluative language can help uncover people’s distinguishing qualities, i.e., recurrent behavioral, cognitive, or affective tendencies. Such behavioral differences resulting from interaction with the environment fall within the purview of personality psychology, where they are typically examined as personality traits – sets of characteristic patterns of behavior, cognition, and feelings stable over time and across situations (Funder, 2012) .  \n3986  \nFindings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: EMNLP 2022 , pages 3986–3999 December 7-11, 2022 ©2022 Association for Computational Linguistics  \nMoreover, personality traits have been shown to correlate with occupational preferences, political or religious tendencies, intelligence, personal interests, and opinions (Larson et al., 2002 ; Ackerman and Heggestad, 1997 ; Hyman, 1957) .  \nTo the best of our knowledge, evaluative language has not yet been studied in the context of personality analysis on social media.
