PARANOIA

Research project to explore how psychotherapeutic work can be supported with computational tools. Currently, only about 1% of patients with schizophrenia receive psychotherapeutic support, although its effectiveness has been proven. This research project aims to lay the foundation for
interaction analysis in the context of cognitive behavioural therapy for schizophrenia.
