When we are depressed, we not only have negative thoughts but also experience a muddled, disorganized thinking process. We propose some steps to make progress in understanding and reducing the burden of disorganization in #DepressionTreatment link.springer.com/article/10.100…

🧵 1/ Excited to share my latest #research Our paper, "Approximating the semantic space: word embedding techniques in psychiatric speech analysis", is now published in @schizjournal by @SpringerNature. Read it here: rdcu.be/d1ZeS
I'm happy to share our Review article in @TrendsCognSci , "Cognitive Maps and Schizophrenia", synthesising evidence for representation-level abnormalities in the condition, and proposing directions for future work. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
I’m excited to share our new, open-access paper published today in @NatMentHealth, “Latent mechanisms of language disorganization relate to specific dimensions of psychopathology”. nature.com/articles/s4422…
Our findings also extend previous work using NLP to characterize language incoherence in psychosis (@discourseinpsy) in a large, general population sample, thereby allowing for rigorous testing of the psychometric properties of different NLP measures.
New paper online! Congrats to Amir Nikzad, our PGY1 research track resident on his fantastic work. We explored the use of linguistic features derived from #NLP as objective markers of psychotherapeutic processes in #schizophrenia. doi.org/10.1111/eip.13… 1/5
