Fig. 4. — Number of retweets as a function of sentiment and number of followers. To visualize the interaction between two continuous variables (sentiment and the number of followers), the panels show the mean number of followers in the middle panel as well as the M ± SD (left and right panels, respectively). The colored areas indicate the 95% confidence intervals. The results show that the effect of sentiment on content sharing is greater when there is a higher number of followers. In other words, negativity sharing was stronger for the content of users with more followers.
