| "text": "Aspects of doctor-patient communication have been shown to be associated with patient outcomes, in particular patient satisfaction, treatment adherence and health status (Ong et al., 1995) . For patients with schizophrenia, non-adherence to treatment is a significant problem, with non-adherent patients having an average risk of relapse that is 3.7 times higher than adherent patients (Fenton et al., 1997) . Some recent work suggests that a critical factor is conversation structure -how the communication proceeds. In consultations between out-patients with schizophrenia and their psychiatrists, McCabe et al. (tion) showed that patients who used more other repair -i.e. clarified what the doctor was saying -were more likely to adhere to their treatment six months later. However, outcomes are also affected by the content of the conversation -what is talked about. Using conversation analytic techniques, McCabe et al. (2002) show that doctors and patients have different agendas, made manifest in the topics that they talk about; on the same data, with topics annotated by hand, Hermann et al. (in prep) showed that patients attempt to talk about psychotic symptoms, but doctors focus more on medication issues. Importantly, more talk about medication from the patient increases the patient's chances of relapse in the six months following the consultation (Hermann et al., in prep) .", | |

Their findings indicate that high-level features of the dialogue structure (backchannels, overlap etc) do not predict these outcomes to any degree of accuracy. However, by using all words spoken by patients as unigram lexical features, and selecting a subset based on correlation with outcomes over the training set, they were able to predict outcomes to reasonable degrees of accuracy (c. 70% for future adherence to treatment -see Howes et al., 2012a, for details) .", | |

However, as the successful features encode specific words spoken by the patient, it is unclear whether they relate to dialogue structure or content, or some combination of the two, and thus help little in explaining the results or providing feedback to help improve therapy effectiveness. It is also unclear how generalisable such results are to larger datasets or different settings, given such specific features with a small dataset. More general models or features may therefore be required.", | |

Topic provides a measure of content more general than lexical word features; by examining its predictive power, we hope to provide generalisable models while also shedding more light on the role of content vs structure. As content is known to be predictive of outcomes to some extent, identification and tracking of topics covered can provide useful information for clinicians, enabling them to better direct their discussions in time restricted consultations, and aid the identification of patients who may subsequently be at risk of relapse or non-adherence to treatment. However, annotating for topic by hand is a time-consuming and subjective process (topics must first be agreed on by researchers, and annotators subsequently trained on this annotation scheme); we therefore examine the use of automatic topic modelling.", | |

| "text": "Probabilistic topic modelling using Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA; Blei et al., 2003) has been previously used to extract topics from large corpora of texts, e.g. web documents and scientific articles. A \"topic\" consists of a cluster of words that frequently occur together. Using contextual clues, topic models can connect words with similar meanings and distinguish between uses of words with multiple meanings (see e.g. Steyvers and Griffiths, 2007) . LDA uses unsupervised learning methods, and learns the topic distributions from the data itself, by iteratively adjusting priors (see Blei, 2012 , for an outline of the algorithms used in LDA). Such techniques have been applied to structured dialogue, such as meetings (Purver et al., 2006) and tutoring dialogues (Arguello and Ros\u00e9, 2006) with encouraging results.", | |

| "text": "In the clinical domain, probabilistic topic modelling has been applied to patients' notes to discover relevant clinical concepts and connections between patients (Arnold et al., 2010) . In terms of clinical dialogue, there are few studies which apply unsupervised methods to learning topic models, though recently this has become an active field of exploration. Angus et al. (2012) apply unsupervised methods to primary care clinical dialogues, to visualise shared content in communication in this domain. However, their data relies on only six dialogues, with the three training dialogues being produced in a role play situation. It is unclear whether using constructed dialogues as the baseline measure maps reliably to genuine dialogues. Additonally, though they did find differences in the patterns of communication based on how the patient had rated the encounter, their task was a descriptive one, not a predictive one and it is unclear if or how their methodology would scale up, especially given that they selected their testing dialogues on the basis of the patient evaluations. Cretchley et al. (2010) applied unsupervised techniques to dialogues between patients with schizophrenia and their carers (either professional carers or family members). Patients and carers were instructed to talk informally and given a list of general interest topics such as sport and entertainment. They split their sample into two pre-defined communication styles (\"low-or high-activity communicators\") and described differences in the most common words spoken by each type depending on both the type of carer and the type of communicator. Once again, however, this was a descriptive exercise, on a very small number of dyads, and in choosing to predefine the participants by the amount of communicative activity they undertook they may have missed ways to differentiate between groups of patients that can be extracted from the data, rather than being pre-theoretic.", | |

One of the main issues is in the interpretation of results. Studies described above used visualisations of the data to find patterns; one question that therefore arises is whether we can usefully interpret \"topics\" without these -for example, just by examining the most common words in a topic. Another question concerns the limited evidence that different styles of communication can be demonstrated using unsupervised topic modelling, and that these differences have a bearing on, for example, the patient's evaluations of the communication or their symptoms.

The distribution is highly skewed, with the largest topic (16) accounting for about a fifth of all the data, and the smallest topic (3) only 1.4%. Once stop words had been removed the corpus consisted of 78,723 tokens. Nearly 18,000 of these (17,957) were therefore most likely to be assigned to topic 16, with just over 1000 (1063) in the smallest topic.

However, it is not clear that the topics themselves correspond so well. For the hand-coded topics, the topic with the highest probability is medication, followed by general chat and then psychotic symptoms; for the LDA topics, the most likely is external support, followed by medication regimen and social stressors -with psychotic symptoms only appearing much further down the list.", | |

| "text": "We next examined the correspondence between automatic and hand-coded topics directly. Of course, because of the differences in methods, we do not expect these to be equivalent; but examining similarities and differences helps validate (or otherwise) the interpretations given to the LDA topics, and determine whether the topics in fact pick out different aspects of the dialogues in each case. Table 3 shows correlations with coefficients greater than 0.3. 2 These correlations are calculated on the basis of the proportions of each topic in each dialogue; as such, these are overview figures across dialogues and do not tell us about topic assignment at a finer-grained level (for example, we know that highly correlated topics occur in the same dialogues, but not whether they occur in the same sequential sections of those dialogues). Table 3 : Correlations between hand-coded and automatic topic distributions From the data above we can see that some of the topics match up well, suggesting that in certain cases the LDA topic model is picking out similar aspects of the content. Examples are the high correlations between the hand and automatically coded substance misuse and physical health topics. Given the relative prominence of the two topics, the high correlation between medication and medication regimen suggests that the LDA topic model is picking out a subset of the talk on medication. This could be linked to the fact that though there may be many different ways of talking about medication (potentially depending on the type of drug, the patient's history etc) that are understandable to human annotators, there is a smaller set of talk about medication which refers to e.g. dosages which is being discovered by LDA topic modelling. Similar considerations may be at play with the link between healthy lifestyle and weight management, and non-psychotic symptoms and sleep issues.", | |

Variables to be predicted were binarised into groups of equal size prior to analysis, and for the adherence measure a balanced Table 6 : Accuracy of automatically extracted topics with different feature groups subset of 74 cases was used. All experiments used 5-fold cross-validation, and the experiments using an SVM classifier used a radial bias function with the best values for cost and gamma determined by a grid search in each case. Tables 5 and 6 show the accuracy figures for each predicted variable, using a variety of different feature subsets. Doctor factors are the gender and identity of the doctor. Patient factors are the gender and age of the patient, and also the total number of words spoken by both patient and doctor.

For the therapeutic relationship (HAS) measures, including doctor factors gives an accuracy of over 70% in all cases, with the identity of the psychiatrist the most important factor in the decision trees. However, although allowing us a reasonably good fit to the data, the inclusion of the doctor's identity as a feature means that this is not a generalisable result; we would not be able to utilise the information from this factor in predicting the HAS score of a consultation with a new doctor. In this respect, the 65% accuracy when using only the 20 coarse-grained automatic topics is encouraging. In the decision tree, the highest node is social stressors, with a high amount of talk in this category indicating a low rating of the therapeutic relationship from the doctor (66 low/21 high). If there was less talk about social stressors, the next highest node is sleep patterns, with more talk in this area indicating a greater likelihood of a good therapeutic relationship rating (29 high/3 low). Next, more talk about non-psychotic symptoms leads to low ratings (11 low/3 high), and more reassurance, leads to a better therapeutic relationship. Interestingly, automatic topics give better accuracy than manual topics when used alone.", | |

Automatic topics do not allow prediction of symptoms, where manual topics do -even though there is a correlation between their corresponding topics relating to psychotic symptoms. This may suggest that LDA used in this way is discovering topics which are a subset of the manual topics: discussion of symptoms may be wider and include more different conversational phenomena than suggested purely by symptom-related lexical items. On the other hand, LDA topics appear to be better at predicting evaluations of the therapeutic relationship; here, one possible explanation may be that LDA is producing \"topics\" which capture aspects of style or structure rather than purely content. Further investigation might reveal whether examination of the relevant LDA topics can reveal important aspects of communication style -particularly that of the doctor, given that doctor identity factors also improve prediction of this measure, and are related to patients subsequent adherence.", | |
