背景精神分裂症患者的语言使用经常受到干扰;新的计算方法可以提供新的见解。目的为了测试单词使用模式作为知觉的标记，精神分裂症的认知和社会经验的特点。方法字数统计软件应用于精神分裂症和心境障碍的第一人称帐户。结果更多的第三人称复数代词（“他们”）和更少的第一人称单数代词（“我”）精神分裂症患者比情绪障碍患者更常使用。精神分裂症的描述包括更少的与身体和摄入有关的词，而更多的与宗教有关。知觉语言和因果语言在精神分裂症的叙述中呈负相关，但在情绪中呈正相关。disorder accounts.ConclusionsDifferences在代词建议减少自我的重点，甚至可能是一个自我的理解为其他精神分裂症。知觉和因果词之间的相关性差异表明，长期存在的错觉代表了随着时间的推移，解释与感官体验的耦合度下降。
BackgroundLanguage use is often disrupted in patients with schizophrenia; novel computational approaches may provide new insights.AimsTo test word use patterns as markers of the perceptual, cognitive and social experiences characteristic of schizophrenia.MethodWord counting software was applied to first-person accounts of schizophrenia and mood disorder.ResultsMore third-person plural pronouns ('they') and fewer first-person singular pronouns ('I') were used in schizophrenia than mood disorder accounts. Schizophrenia accounts included fewer words related to the body and ingestion, and more related to religion. Perceptual and causal language were negatively correlated in schizophrenia accounts but positively correlated in mood. disorder accounts.ConclusionsDifferences in pronouns suggest decreased self-focus or perhaps even an understanding of self as other in schizophrenia. Differences in how perceptual and causal words are correlated suggest that long-held delusions represent a decreased coupling of explanations with sensory experience over time.
