Using narratives as a digital phenotype to forecast mental health recovery from trauma

We will test the extent to which private (text message) and public (social media) communication after a traumatic event, relative to such communication prior to a traumatic event, distinguishes those with and without psychopathology after a traumatic event. These expressions can provide valuable data for understanding how psychopathology is represented in these types of communication. This study will determine if digital phenotyping using public and privately available narrative data can forecast mental health recovery after a trauma.
