• Intuition in Judgment and Decision Making: Extensive Thinking Without Effort (2010, background): “INTUITION IN DECISION MAKING Research on the understanding of irony in speech is evidencing that adult recipients simultaneously utilize even more stimuli such as prosodic-, mimic-, and gesture-related information (see Gibbs & Colston, 2007, for overviews).”
• Humans Require Context to Infer Ironic Intent (so Computers Probably do, too) (2014, background): “First, verbal irony is a notoriously slippery concept (Gibbs and Colston, 2007) and coming up with an operational definition to be consistently applied is non-trivial.”
• Verbal Irony (2012, background): “…of e-mails sent to friends contain irony, Whalen et al., 2009; 72.8% of blog entries contain irony, Whalen, Pexman, Gill, & Nowson, in press), uncovering of the ways in which irony is used in communicative situations is one of the major research challenges for irony studies (Gibbs & Colston, 2007).”
