During recent years, social infrastructure has become irreversibly linked to the Internet through its everyday manifestations, such as social networking services (Twitter, Facebook, etc.). Every second, this new tangible information-based reality provides large amounts of data filled with 1) emotional expressions; 2) people's opinions on various topics; and 3) their reasoning, revealing their decision-making processes. As these three categories are also closely interrelated with each other, they should be studied together to obtain a more robust view on all of the topics involved. This, as never before, provides an opportunity for the development and application of natural language processing methods, in particular those regarding such topics as emotion processing, decision-making, and opinion mining.
