| Changes in speech can reflect a variety of cognitive impairments. Analysis of speech samples is therefore an indispensable part of psychiatric research. With the advancement of computational linguistics, we are far past the stage of manually counting the linguistic features of interest to psychiatrists; in fact, we are able to compute within a reasonable amount of time many measures much more complicated than the traditional measures like sentence length, word length and type-token-related counts. The University of Georgia CASPR Project is developing a battery of speech analysis software for psychiatric research, targeting various linguistic deviances associated with psychiatric conditions such as schizophrenia.
