Sažetak
Researchers interested in investigating relationships between language and emotions rely on normative studies which include large lists of words evaluated on different emotional dimensions by a huge number of participants. Most databases used in research are made for Germanic and Romance languages. The present study introduces the first database in southern Slavic group of languages, i.e. Croatian. Many features of Croatian differentiate it from other languages, e.g. three genders, seven cases, and "one letter per sound" orthographic system. The database includes 3, 022 words, and scores for three emotional dimensions (arousal, valence and concreteness) were collected. Each word was rated by at least 25 participants. Correlations between arousal, valence, concreteness and psycholinguistic variables were explored. Considering the differences in the language structures between Croatian, Romance and Germanic languages, this database will allow researchers interested in affective psycholinguistics to explore new questions that remained unanswered.
