My research interest spans from linguistics, rhetoric, and communication. Living in a post-truth world, I am intrigued to explore the frames (or mental model) that individuals process and interpret the information around them. Specifically, I am using corpus to model and present how a word may evoke different frames between groups with different political ideology. Hopefully my research can inform how we can communicate with ideologically different people in such a polarized world.
