Using speech to detect psychosis relapse early
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether changes in your speech patterns can help predict a psychotic relapse before it happens. If you're in an early psychosis program, you may help develop a tool that could warn you and your care team early.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how people with early psychosis (within the first 5 years of treatment) talk during conversations. Researchers hope to learn more about speech patterns and brain activity related to psychosis.
This study looks at how people with early psychosis update their beliefs and use speech, using tasks on a laptop or phone. It aims to understand these processes better to improve support.
This study looks at how language and memory interact in people with psychosis, including those at risk, early psychosis, or schizophrenia, as well as healthy volunteers. It aims to understand these connections better, which may help improve care.
This study looks at how people use language (free speech) after a suicidal gesture, idea, or related behavior that affected their life. The researchers use computer-based analysis to understand patterns in speech and thinking, which may help improve support and assessment.
This study tests whether a new screening tool can detect emerging mental health problems at an early stage. It may help people and clinicians identify issues sooner, so support can happen earlier.
This study explores how language and thinking become disorganized in people with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. By understanding brain patterns, researchers hope to find better ways to treat these symptoms.
