Recent research on consultations between outpatients with schizophrenia and psychiatrists suggests that the likelihood of adherence to treatment correlates with particular conversational phenomena—specifically, the use of repair by the patient to check their understanding. This talk will discuss initial results from a project investigating the application of computational linguistic techniques to automatically detect these repair phenomena within consultation transcripts, and to use these and other features of the dialogue and the language used to predict patients’ symptoms, satisfaction and adherence.
