Navigating the semantic space: Unraveling the structure of meaning in psychosis using different computational language models

Speech in psychosis has long been ascribed as involving ‘loosening of associations’. We pursued the aim to elucidate its underlying cognitive mechanisms by analysing picture descriptions from 94 subjects (29 healthy controls, 18 participants at clinical high risk, 29 with first-episode psychosis, and 18 with chronic schizophrenia), using five language models with different computational architectures: […]

The ‘L-factor’: Language as a transdiagnostic dimension in psychopathology

Thoughts and moods constituting our mental life incessantly change. When the steady flow of this dynamics diverges in clinical directions, the possible pathways involved are captured through discrete diagnostic labels. Yet a single vulnerable neurocognitive system may be causally involved in psychopathological deviations transdiagnostically. We argue that language viewed as integrating cortical functions is the […]

Clinical and Patient Collaboration Driving Innovation in the TRUSTING Project

In a major step towards integrating patient and clinician perspectives into mental health technology, the TRUSTING project is proud to announce that its Clinical User Board (TRUSB-C) and the Patients User Board (TRUSB-P) are nearing completion. The TRUSB-C Board, coordinated by the European Psychiatric Association (EPA), will bring together 10 leading experts in psychosis treatment […]

Preventing Psychotic Relapse with AI: Introducing the TRUSTING Project with Silvia Ciampelli

In this new video, Silvia Ciampelli, a PhD student at the University Medical Center Groningen, introduces the TRUSTING project and the main focus of the initiative on preventing psychotic relapses through cutting-edge artificial intelligence. Silvia explains that language can reveal crucial insights into our mental health. For example, shifts in tone can reflect changes in […]

TRUSTING Project Consortium Meeting Held in Leiden

On June 28, 2024, members of the TRUSTING project gathered in Leiden for a consortium meeting. The event marked a significant milestone, celebrating one year since the project’s inception. Prof. Iris Sommer, the project coordinator, from the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG) opened the meeting with a reflective presentation. After this, Dr. Sanne Schuite-Koops led […]
