Area of Science:

Social Media Analysis
Neuroscience Communication

Background:

Understanding public perception of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is crucial for support and awareness.
Twitter serves as a significant platform for public discourse on health conditions.

Purpose of the Study:

To analyze English tweets for Multiple Sclerosis (MS) perspectives.
To determine sentiment and identify key topics discussed by Twitter users regarding MS.

Main Methods:

Utilized AI-based sentiment analysis on 1168 tweets mentioning "multiple sclerosis" or "multiplesclerosis".
Conducted content analysis on 17.4% of the collected tweets to identify themes.

Main Results:

44% of tweets expressed positive sentiment, while 22.3% were negative.
Identified three main themes: announcement sharing, information sharing, and experience sharing.
Objective content (announcements, information) was shared more frequently than subjective content (experiences).

Conclusions:

Findings offer insights into supporting positive MS views and managing negative ones on social media.
Encouraging the sharing of subjective experiences can enhance understanding and support for individuals with MS.
