There are three categories of users that consume social media data either for their personal use or for aggregation and presentation to others. These users rely on a preferential combination of Social Media Signals (SMS) that satisfies their information goals and aids in their decision-making. The research community is split on how to deal with some signals such as text originating from robotic voices; some suggest removing them while others are more interested in better identifying them. This paper statistically tests the SMS's in a dataset gathered during one of the political debates during the US Presidential Elections in 2016. It introduces a reusable technique aimed at contributing to the iterative and symbiotic user-system relationship, while improving the opportunity for arriving at empirically supported results for decision-making instances regardless of the consumer group.
