- Abstract
This study starts from two perspectives: the content and emotion of peer review in the peer assessment. This study examines the influence of concrete and suggestive comment content on the helpfulness of peer assessment and the influence of positive and negative sentiments on peer comment helpfulness. Collecting the data of 10 courses from 2014 to 2020 generated in a learning information system, we use natural language processing (NLP) methods to process text data and combine multiple regression methods to analyze. The results suggest that peer assessment with less concrete comments could have been more helpful. Peer comments having suggestive guidance were more helpful than those only with general exposition. Moreover, positive sentiments improve the helpfulness of peer comments, while negative sentiments reduce it. The study provides guidance on how to improve the quality of reviews in peer assessment.
