Description
Antonio Salinas-Layana and co-authors set out a protocol for a scoping review on how large language models are judged in digital mental health tools, in a 2026 paper. Digital tools can widen access to assessment, prevention, and care. Language models add natural talk, personalization, and empathic replies.
Yet judging these models lacks shared constructs and tested instruments. That limits comparison and repeat work across studies. No synthesis yet maps the frames, methods, and tools in use. The planned review will chart them across assessment, support, and therapy settings. The protocol aims to build a shared evidence base for future judging work.
