Our finding that alterations in speech and thought are relatively specific is striking given the ubiquity of transdiagnostic findings in psychopathology. Notably, the relevant dimensions were distinctly interpersonal, reflecting the inherently social nature of language.

Whereas Formal Thought Disorder, prevalent in psychosis, is usually diagnosed based on speech incoherence, computational modeling of associative output allowed us to uncover disorganized semantic retrieval as a core mechanism, evident even when language output is intact.

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”. www.nature.com/articles/s44...
