Sentence End Marks

Description

end_mark - Grab the sentence end marks for a transcript. This can be useful to categorize based on sentence type.

end_mark_by - Grab the sentence end marks for a transcript by grouping variable(s).

Usage

end_mark(
  text.var,
  missing.end.mark = "_",
  missing.text = NA,
  other.endmarks = NULL
)

end_mark_by(
  text.var,
  grouping.var,
  digits = 3,
  percent = FALSE,
  zero.replace = 0,
  ...
)

Arguments

text.var

The text variable.

missing.end.mark

A value to use for sentences with missing endmarks.

missing.text

A value to use for sentences with missing (NA) text.

other.endmarks

Other 1-2 character endmarks to search for.

grouping.var

The grouping variables. Default NULL generates one word list for all text. Also takes a single grouping variable or a list of 1 or more grouping variables.

digits

Integer; number of decimal places to round when printing.

percent

logical. If TRUE output given as percent. If FALSE the output is proportion.

zero.replace

Value to replace 0 values with.

...

Other arguments passed to end_mark.

Value

Returns a character vector of qdap end marks for each sentence. End marks include:

"."

Declarative sentence.

"?"

Question sentence.

"!"

Exclamatory sentence.

"|"

Incomplete sentence.

"*."

Imperative-declarative sentence.

"*?"

Imperative-question sentence (unlikely to occur)

"*!"

Imperative-exclamatory sentence.

"*|"

Imperative-incomplete sentence.

"no.em"

No end mark.

"blank"

Empty cell/NA.

    end_mark(x)
})

sentplots <- lapply(seq_along(sentpres), function(i) {

    m + ggtitle(paste("Debate", i))
})

library(grid)
library(gridExtra)
do.call(grid.arrange, sentplots)

##EXAMPLE 2
sentraj <- lapply(with(rajSPLIT, split(dialogue, act)), function(x) {
    end_mark(x)
})
 
sentplots2 <- lapply(seq_along(sentraj), function(i) {
    m <- plot(cumulative(sentraj[[i]]))
    if (i != 2) m <- m + ylab("")
    if (i != 3) m <- m + xlab(NULL)
    act <- qcv(I, II, III, IV, V)
    m + ggtitle(paste("Act", act[i]))
})

## ggplot2 function to extract legend
g_legend <- function(a.gplot){ 
    tmp <- ggplot_gtable(ggplot_build(a.gplot)) 
    leg <- which(sapply(tmp[["grobs"]], function(x) x[["name"]]) == "guide-box") 
    legend <- tmp[["grobs"]][[leg]] 
    legend
} 

## remove legends from plots
sentplots3 <- lapply(sentplots2, function(x){
    x + theme(legend.position="none") + xlab(NULL) + ylab(NULL)
})

sentplots3[[6]] <- g_legend(sentplots2[[1]])
