Description
Kaley Angers and five co-authors study how well people match speech style in talk across the early psychosis range. Matching style is a natural part of smooth talk. They taped talks with more than one hundred young people and scored how well each pair synced in word style.
Sync linked to better real world social life in early psychosis and in healthy peers, but not in a high trait group. Sync added news past task scores and basic facts. Talk sync may catch social strain that standard tests miss. More work is needed, the authors say.
