The Psychological Meaning of Words
"But then, what is a psychologically meaningful category?"

Language at its most basic function is to communicate. Words provide information about social processes—who has more status, whether a group is working well together, if someone is being deceptive, and the quality of a close relationship.

Language is just about territorial pissing, you see. Any text – any – reduces to this: ‘this is mine, I am more intelligent and stronger than you’. Language is the way those sociophylic guys tend to get you into the game called “society”. Yes, language is just about territorial pissing.

For Yla Tausczic, multiple forms of reputation are related to the perceived quality of contributions. According to her, this suggests that both offline and online reputation could be effectively used to identify high quality submissions. I think she is pretty right here, but the conclusion I draw is this: we run the risk to replace scientific merit by mere reputation. The question is whether one can get to be a reputed scientist despite the many nonsensical stupidities one can get to publish, and I’m afraid the answer is ‘Yes, you can’.

"From a psychological perspective, style words reflect how people are communicating, whereas content words convey what they are saying. It is not surprising, then, that style words are much more closely linked to measures of people’s social and psychological worlds".
