Project Description

For many people, online communities have become an indispensable component of modern social life. Unfortunately, negative social interactions within these communities can be harmful to its members. Research has shown that toxic behavior can negatively impact the mental health and well-being within online communities. This presentation will illustrate using a linguistic inquiry approach for classifying inappropriate behavior in online communities. Our research shows how group dynamics and machine learning can mitigate harassment for the safety and well-being of online community members.
