Speech-based Psychological Crisis Assessment using LLMs

The paper presents an LLM-based framework for automatically classifying crisis levels in psychological support hotlines, addressing variability in human judgments and staffing constraints. It introduces a paralinguistic injection method that embeds non‑verbal emotional cues into transcripts, allowing the model to consider acoustic nuances. A reasoning‑enhanced training strategy encourages the model to produce diagnostic reasoning chains, which regularizes and improves classification, achieving a macro F1‑score of 0.802 and accuracy of 0.805 in 5‑fold cross‑validation.

Automated Data Enrichment using Confidence-Aware Fine-Grained Debate among Open-Source LLMs for Mental Health and Online Safety

arXiv:2512. 06227v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Real-world indicators play an important role in many Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications, such as life events for mental health analysis and risky behaviours for online safety, yet labelling such information is often costly and/or difficult due to its multi-label and dynamic nature.

ConVAWG: A Retrieval-Grounded Framework for Controlled Synthetic Dialogue Generation in Violence Against Women and Girls

Synthetic dialogue generation offers a way to study conversational dynamics in sensitive domains where real data are difficult to access, release, or annotate. The underlying abuse may occur online or offline: threats and coercion can appear directly in messages, while behaviours such as surveillance, isolation, stalking, and physical violence may be planned, disclosed, or referred to conversationally.
