Sentiment in speech is associated with symptom severity in psychosis.
Article in Cognitive neuropsychiatry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundSentiment in the speech of people with schizophrenia spectrum disorder (SSD) may reflect psychosis severity. Previous research examines speech from semi-structured interviews or self-narrative prompts, where differences in measured sentiment may be driven by differences in life experiences. We measured sentiment in speech evoked from standardised stimuli among participants with a psychotic disorder.
methodsTwo cohorts (
resultsSeveral replicable relationships between sentiment and symptom severity were found: two replicable findings among Cohorts 1 and 2 and three replicable findings across Cohort 1 timepoints. Five findings were also generalised to within-participant longitudinal relationships.
conclusionsSentiment measures were related to the four symptom domains in the context of standardised stimuli, suggesting a disruption in emotion processing among people with a psychotic disorder.
