Nazi propaganda from 1927–1945 reveals the role of dehumanization of Jews in the Holocaust plos PLOSONE
]). Established in 1999, this voluminous archive now contains hundreds of Nazi-era posters, articles, pamphlets, books, newspapers, and transcripts of political speeches. These materials were intended for a variety of audiences, including children, the general public, and members of the Nazi party. The original German-language versions of the propaganda were collected from the German Federal Archives, university libraries, and the archivist’s personal collection used for his own research .
As we were interested in the dehumanization of Jews, we established a procedure to only extract text from this archive that directly referred to Jews or could be reasonably inferred to do so. The first author began by reading the first 20 pieces of propaganda in the archive, identifying instances where it was ambiguous as to whether the text was referring to Jews. He then used this experience to draft a coding manual which outlined guidelines for dealing with ambiguous cases .
To identify trends in agency and experience over time, we organized the text by the month in which it was published. Since the MPD analyzes the proportion of mental state terms in a given body of text, we excluded all months with fewer than 100 total words to avoid inflated estimates. This decision was included in our preregistered analysis plan but was somewhat arbitrary, as there is no consensual minimum of text used for MPD analyses [].
