Emojis are extensively used to convey emotional nuances non-verbally in computer-mediated communication. Previous studies have examined how emojis are used and how they change the expression of a sentence, as well as the subsequent impression of the reader. Regarding whether the writer’s emotion is understood correctly by readers, evidence shows that emojis can enhance specific emotions. However, the effects of variation in the kinds of sentence, emotion, and emoji on the shifting emotion conveyed have not been studied. In this study, we examined the various factors that affect the shift in emotions being communicated. Our results demonstrated that positive emotions can be communicated more correctly compared with negative emotions and that smiley emojis (a.k.a. emoticons) can communicate emotions more clearly compared with other kinds of emoji.
