SocialNLP review is double-blind. Therefore, please anonymize your submission: do not put the au-thor(s) names or affiliation(s) at the start of the paper, and do not include funding or other acknowl-edgments in papers submitted for review. In addition to regular paper, we call for DATA PAPER this year. A data paper should include the details of the created dataset and an experiment illustrating how to use it. Authors should note it as a data paper using the author field and submit at least partial data as accompanied materials. The created dataset should be able to be downloaded or acquired through an application process freely. If the data paper is accepted, we will list the link for accessing the dataset in the SocialNLP website. Note that the review for data papers is also double-blind and it is authors' re-sponsibility to avoid revealing their identities.

Papers submitted to this workshop must not have been accepted for publication elsewhere or be under review for another workshop, conference or journal. Papers should be written in English. Each submis-sion will be evaluated by at least 3 program committee members. For SocialNLP@NAACL-2022, the workshop proceedings will be published in ACL Anthology.

To pursue high quality submission, we will have a best paper award of SocialNLP 2022 for both venues. The selection process will depend on not only the review comments/ratings, but also the quality of paper that is rated by paper authors. Selected, expanded versions of papers presented at the workshop will be published in two follow-on Special Issues of Springer Journal of Information Science and Engineering (JISE) and the International Journal of Computational Linguistics and Chinese Language Processing (IJCLCLP).
