# Dataset card for _Measuring Hate Speech_

This is a public release of the dataset described in Kennedy et al. (2020). The dataset contains one row for each comment that an annotator reviews; each comment is rated multiple times. The primary outcome variable is the "hate speech score" but the 10 constituent labels can also be treated as outcomes.

This dataset card is a work in progress and will be improved over time.

## Key dataset columns

 * hate_speech_score - continuous hate speech measure, where higher = more hateful and lower = less hateful
 * text - lightly processed text of a social media post
 * comment\_id - unique ID for each comment
 * annotator\_id - unique ID for each annotator
 * sentiment - ordinal label that is combined into the continuous score
 * respect - ordinal label that is combined into the continuous score
 * insult - ordinal label that is combined into the continuous score
 * humiliate - ordinal label that is combined into the continuous score
 * status - ordinal label that is combined into the continuous score
 * dehumanize - ordinal label that is combined into the continuous score
 * violence - ordinal label that is combined into the continuous score
 * genocide - ordinal label that is combined into the continuous score
 * attack\_defend - ordinal label that is combined into the continuous score
 * hatespeech - ordinal label that is combined into the continuous score
 * annotator_severity - annotator's estimated survey interpretation bias
