Researchers in Japan have analysed almost two million tweets and a swathe of location data to determine how different areas in cities play with our emotions.
People are more likely to express disgust and frustration on social media when they are at train stations, new research suggests.
Other transportation areas, such as bridges and bus stops, are also common locations for people to rage post, according to the researchers who analysed nearly two million tweets from people in London and San Francisco.also used information on specific buildings and other locations taken from Open Street Map, a free, public geographic database.
Combined with the tweets, they were able to identify when and where people expressed a range of emotions from anticipation and disgust to surprise and delight. While the cities' transport links seemed to be a major source of frustration, tweets from hotels and restaurants showcased much higher levels of joy, according to the study.
Specific events were also associated with people's emotions - for example, New Year's Eve coincided with more excitement and happiness in both London and San Francisco., showed huge increases in levels of anger, disgust, and sadness in San Francisco.
