Cervical Myelopathy and Social Media: Mixed Methods Analysis

To determine negative or positive outlook for tweets (ie, their sentiment), we used a natural language processing (NLP) python library, Text Blob [21].

The polarity score is used to represent sentiment, with –1 representing the most negative tweets and +1 representing the most positive tweets.
