    The language of religious affiliation: social, emotional, and cognitive differences

    Religious affiliation is an important identifying characteristic for many individuals and relates to numerous life outcomes including health, well-being, policy positions, and cognitive style. Using methods from computational linguistics, we examined language from 12,815 Facebook users in the United States and United Kingdom who indicated their religious affiliation. Religious individuals used more positive emotion words (β = .278, p < .0001) and social themes such as family (β = .242, p < .0001), while nonreligious people expressed more negative emotions like anger (β = −.427, p < .0001) and categories related to cognitive processes, like tentativeness (β = −.153, p < .0001). Nonreligious individuals also used more themes related to the body (β = −.265, p < .0001) and death (β = −.247, p < .0001). The findings offer directions for future research on religious affiliation, specifically in terms of social, emotional, and cognitive differences

    <p><b>Left panel</b> shows the detail of variation locations and length differences in different TSV types. For all TSV types, the open reading frames of variations within CDS regions are conserved. <b>Right panel</b> shows the summary of variation locations and length differences. The green and red colors in the inner circle represent in-frame and out-of-frame variations respectively. More than 65% of variations at CDS regions are in-frame, while variations at un-translated regions (UTR) tend to be out-of-frame. Therefore, most transcript structure variations just insert or delete some amino acids without changing the protein structures. The data also show that more variations are at 5′-UTR than at 3′-UTR, which suggests the higher efficiency on gene regulation at 5′-UTR than 3′-UTR.</p

    <p><b>Upper panel</b> is a diagram illustrating the variation types. White boxes are exons in mRNA, and black boxes are parts of exons in some mRNA and parts of introns in others. The sites connected by lines are splicing sites. The “Others” type includes alternative transcript initialization, major gene structure changes or types that cannot be summarized by the other five categories. <b>Lower panel</b> shows the frequency distribution of transcript structure variation types in <i>A. gambiae</i>.</p
