Description
Claire Emilie Bertrand and colleagues tested computer tools for rating feelings in a 2026 study on psychosis risk. Psychosis means losing touch with what is real, and flat or low drive can come first. Such signs are hard to score by eye. The team filmed one hundred one young people at high risk and forty-one healthy peers. Software read their faces during interviews, and photos tested how strongly they reacted.
The at-risk group showed more disgust on their faces than the healthy group. Face signs and feeling reactions barely matched each other. Fewer strong face displays went with weaker outward feeling. Smiling more, oddly, went with lower drive and pleasure. The authors say face software adds facts that mood tests alone can miss.
