Sentometrics: An Overview of Methodology and Applications

David Ardia, Associate Professor, Department of Decision Sciences, HEC Montréal

Abstract:

The advent of massive amounts of textual data has spurred the development of econometric methodologies to transform qualitative sentiment data into quantitative sentiment variables and use those variables in an econometric analysis of the relationships between sentiment and other variables. This seminar will present this new research field and illustrate possible applications in economics and finance.
