“Again, Dozens of Refugees Drowned”: A Computational Study of Political Framing Evoked by Presuppositions (2022.naacl-srw)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Earlier studies on issue framing have focused heavily on shallow classification of issue framers, while framerical cues remain neglected. |
| Approach: | They take presupposition-triggering adverbs such as ‘again’ as a study case and examine how different German newspapers use them to covertly evoke different attitudinal subtexts. |
| Outcome: | The findings show that iterative adverbs like 'again' can act as subtle but effective cues of framing. |
