Understanding the Intersection of Language and Mental Health

In a recent presentation, Silvia Ciampelli shared insights into the profound connection between language and mental health, emphasising the potential for technology to enhance psychiatric assessments. The discussion highlighted the importance of understanding subtle changes in speech as indicators of mental health issues, proposing a shift from subjective evaluations to more objective measures. The Power […]

Surveys Launch: Shaping the Future of the TRUSTING Monitoring Tool

TRUSTING is excited to announce the launch of two surveys under the “Survey for Evaluating Risk of Relapse in Mental Illness,” available in six languages: Czech, German, English, French, Dutch, and Turkish. These surveys aim to gather crucial insights that will influence the development of an innovative speech-based technology designed to predict psychotic relapses. This […]

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 […]
