ANEW Message
Dear Colleague
Thank you for your interest in the Affective Norms for English Words (ANEW). The ANEW provides a set of normative emotional ratings for a large number of words in the English language. This set of verbal materials have been rated in terms of pleasure, arousal, and dominance in order to create a standard for use in studies of emotion and attention.
Considering our exclusively scholarly interests and our status as a unit of the State University, we do not sell these materials. We provide them solely for use in academic, not-for-profit research.
To receive the ANEW for your research, please fill out and submit the ANEW Researcher Information Form. Upon submission of this form, you will receive an email asking you to print, sign and fax the ANEW User Agreement. Within 30 days of receiving your request, you will receive a username and password, and the link to download the ANEW. This link should not be shared, distributed, or linked to from another website.
Because part of the funded mission of CSEA is to provide materials to research labs, it is helpful for us to be able to list the laboratories benefiting from this work. Thus, we would like to take this opportunity to ask that you refer other researchers who would like to receive these materials to us, rather than distributing the ANEW to others yourself.
Thanks again for your interest.
