Description
Summary:This article develops a comprehensive database comprising 5956 German affective norms specifically tailored for the study of organizational atmospheres through computational verbal language analysis. This dictionary adopts both dimensional and categorical approaches. The theoretical foundation of this study is the circumplex model of affective atmospheres. Similar to established methodologies, each word is rated based on the dimensions of valence and arousal. Going beyond the dimensional approach, this article introduces a classification system with 11 distinct atmospheric categories, assigning the words to their corresponding categories. This dictionary represents the first attempt to apply computer-aided text analysis (CATA) to the study of organizational atmospheres, providing a practical tool to support research in this developing area.
