Real-world conversations across the schizophrenia spectrum: Implementing passive audio sensing to examine linguistic style matching.
Article in Journal of psychopathology and clinical science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Social dysfunction is a hallmark of schizophrenia. Experience sampling has facilitated the investigation of daily socialization to detect dysfunction and identify treatment targets. Yet, poor cognition and insight in schizophrenia interfere with subjective self-report. Passive audio sensing and lexical analysis offer a solution to examine objective markers of real-world functioning. Linguistic style matching (LSM), the tendency to coordinate speech patterns with conversation partners, has been linked to social affiliation and connection in healthy populations. It has been theorized that LSM may be disrupted across the schizophrenia spectrum, indicating underlying psychopathology. Our two-part, proof-of-concept study leverages passive audio sensing to measure LSM during real-life conversations and quantify its relationship with interaction depth coded by trained raters. Data were from 2013 to 2019. Study 1 compared LSM between 31 people high in schizotypy and 26 low in schizotypy, finding no significant differences. In Study 2, we observed that those with schizophrenia (
