Description
Summary:Twenty‐five new psychiatric outpatient were clinically evaluated and were routinely administered a brief psychological screening battery which included measures of symptoms, personality, and cognitive function. Included in this assessment procedure were the Gottschalk–Gleser Content Analysis Scales on which scores were derived from five‐minute speech samples by means of an artificial intelligence‐based computer program. Intercorrelations of these content analysis measures with scores obtained from the MMPI‐2, SCL90, and other measures confirmed previously published construct validation findings. The use of this computerized content analysis procedure for initial, rapid diagnostic neuropsychiatric appraisal is supported by this research. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
