Finding Zelig in text: A measure for normalising linguistic accommodation (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Linguistic accommodation is a recognised indicator of social power and social distance. However, different individuals will vary their language to different degrees, and only a portion of this variance will be due to accommodation. This paper present...
