Chinese Social Evaluative Word List

We recruited a large sample (n = 1270, 50% female) from seven regions in China to rate 1908 words on these five social evaluation dimensions and valence. Based on these ratings, we selected words that were unambiguously rated as belonging to one of five dimensions. The final word list has 1040 words, including 245 appearance words (143 positive, 11 neutral, 91 negative), 108 socioeconomic status words (36 positive, 2 neutral, 70 negative), 93 sociability words (53 positive, 5 neutral, 35 negative), 261 competence words (185 positive, 4 neutral, 72 negative), and 333 morality words (149 positive, 1 neutral, 183 negative).
