We used a distributed-language model to examine the moral language employed by U.S. political elites. In Study 1, we analyzed 687,360 Twitter messages (tweets) posted by accounts belonging to Democratic and Republican members of Congress from 2016 to 2018. In Study 2, we analyzed 2,630,688 speeches given on the floor of the House and Senate from 1981 to 2017. We found that partisan differences in moral-language use shifted over time as the parties gained or lost political power. Overall, lower political power was associated with greater use of moral language for both Democrats and Republicans. On Twitter, Democrats used more moral language in the period after Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential election. In Congressional transcripts, both Democrats and Republicans used more of most kinds of moral language when they were in the minority.

美国政治精英的道德语言使用

我们使用分布式语言模型来检验美国政治精英所使用的道德语言。在研究 1 中,我们分析了 2016 年至 2018 年由属于民主党和共和党国会议员的账户发布的 687,360 条 Twitter 消息(推文)。在研究 2 中,我们分析了 1981 年至 2017 年在众议院和参议院发表的 2,630,688 次演讲。我们发现,随着政党获得或失去政治权力,党派在道德语言使用方面的差异随着时间的推移而发生变化。总体而言,较低的政治权力与民主党和共和党人更多地使用道德语言有关。在推特上,民主党在唐纳德特朗普赢得 2016 年总统大选后使用了更多的道德语言。在国会的成绩单中,民主党人和共和党人在少数时使用了更多大多数种类的道德语言。
