This study introduces a new computerized method to analyze the emotional impact of serious illness on patients and their families during conversations. The technique graphically illustrates neuropsychological interactions, offering insights into psychodynamics in stressful care situations.

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Medical Communication
  • Computational Linguistics

Background:

  • The emotional impact of illness is crucial in patient care.
  • Existing speech analysis methods were limited to single samples.
  • Analyzing complex conversations about critically ill patients requires advanced tools.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To extend computerized speech content analysis to conversational interactions.
  • To develop a graphic method for illustrating neuropsychological interchanges in patient care discussions.
  • To apply this method to conversations involving seriously ill surgical patients.

Main Methods:

  • Recorded and transcribed conversations among healthcare providers and family members.
  • Utilized a computerized content analysis program to score utterances on 14 neuropsychological dimensions.
