Happy to share our work is accepted by #CMCL workshop co-located at #NAACL2025! Our work show that the level of involvement from test administrators have significant impact on observed linguistic patterns in patients' speech in the "Cookie Theft" picture description cognitive test. [1/2]

Happy to share that our work is accepted by #CLPsych workshop co-located at #NAACL2025! Our paper shows that smaller models are more sensitive to linguistic differences associated with formal thought disorder than their larger counterparts 1/2

Looking for suggestions for rebuttal (1/2): I keep getting these comments when submitting to *ACL venues: a) NLP methods for disease A does not generalize well to disease B; and b) the evaluation dataset is too small.
