Systematic Literature Review on Emotions and Policy Framing

This dataset contains the final corpus of 81 peer-reviewed journal articles (published between 1990 and 2025) identified through a systematic literature review following the PRISMA protocol. The data supports a thematic analysis of how emotions interact with policy framing, categorized into three primary roles: strategic use (emotions embedded in frames), reactions (audience responses), and mediators (emotions translating frames into behaviour). Attached the RIS file used to create the sample.
