4. Problem Statement
When looking through depression-related literature, the authors came across a few claims that purported to define depressed people and their involvement on social media. The use of absolute terms, negative emotion in tweets, the quantity of postings made by each user, and the intervals between posts were all examined by the authors. The time of posting is another interesting finding about depressive users on social media, however these claims were already investigated in 2019 research by Banovic et al. [15], and they were found to be unimportant, at least for this dataset. Researchers may observe a number of features and their behaviours in the material in this area. The data analysis demonstrated that several hypotheses do in fact point to significant differences between groups that are depressed and those that are not. Absolutist terms (such as absolutely, entirely, completely, etc.) don’t differ significantly between groups, but average words per post and the number of comments per user do [16].
