+ ### Dataset Summary
29
+
30
+ The dataset consists of five training datasets and two test sets. The test sets have a _test.jsonl suffix.
31
+
32
+ ### Data Attributes
33
+ The attributes in training data are the following:
34
+ - sentence - the sentence labeled for sentiment
35
+ - country - the country of the parliament the sentence comes form
36
+ - annotator1 - first annotator's annotation
37
+ - annotator2 - second annotator's annotation
38
+ - reconciliation - the final label agreed upon after reconciliation
39
+ - label - three level (positive, negative, neutral) label based on the reconciliation label
40
+ - document_id - internal identifier of the document the sentence comes form
41
+ - sentence_id - internal identifier of the sentence inside the document
42
+ - term - the term of the parliament the sentence comes from
43
+ - date - the date the sentence was uttered as part of a speech in the parliament
44
+ - name - name of the MP giving the speech
45
+ - party - the party of the MP
46
+ - gender - binary gender of the MP
47
+ - birth year - year of birth of the MP
48
+ - split - whether the sentence is to be used as a training, development or testing instance in case evaluation is done of the training portion of the dataset
49
+ - ruling - whether the MP was in a coalition or an opposition at the time of giving the speech
50
+
51
+ The attributes in the test data (_test.jsonl files) are the following:
52
+ - sentence - the sentence labeled for sentiment
53
+ - country - the country of the parliament the sentence comes form
54
+ - annotator1 - first (only) annotator's annotation, used as a final annotation
55
+ - label - three level (positive, negative, neutral) label based on the annotator1 label
56
+ - document_id - internal identifier of the document the sentence comes form
57
+ - sentence_id - internal identifier of the sentence inside the document
58
+ - term - the term of the parliament the sentence comes from
59
+ - date - the date the sentence was uttered as part of a speech in the parliament
60
+ - name - name of the MP giving the speech
61
+ - party - the party of the MP
62
+ - gender - binary gender of the MP
63
+ - birth year - year of birth of the MP
64
+ - ruling - whether the MP was in a coalition or an opposition at the time of giving the speech

+ abstractNote={Sentiments inherently drive politics. How we receive and process information plays an essential role in political decision-making, shaping our judgment with strategic consequences both on the level of legislators and the masses. If sentiment plays such an important role in politics, how can we study and measure it systematically? The paper presents a new dataset of sentiment-annotated sentences, which are used in a series of experiments focused on training a robust sentiment classifier for parliamentary proceedings. The paper also introduces the first domain-specific LLM for political science applications additionally pre-trained on 1.72 billion domain-specific words from proceedings of 27 European parliaments. We present experiments demonstrating how the additional pre-training of LLM on parliamentary data can significantly improve the model downstream performance on the domain-specific tasks, in our case, sentiment detection in parliamentary proceedings. We further show that multilingual models perform very well on unseen languages and that additional data from other languages significantly improves the target parliament’s results. The paper makes an important contribution to multiple domains of social sciences and bridges them with computer science and computational linguistics. Lastly, it sets up a more robust approach to sentiment analysis of political texts in general, which allows scholars to study political sentiment from a comparative perspective using standardized tools and techniques.},
