Abstract
The study shows how Latent Semantic Analysis can be used to predict differences in latent features of Facebook status updates vs. private posts. We found that Facebook updates are higher on the Dark Triad personality traits, but also reflect more positive valence, dominance and higher arousal, compared to private posts.
