description | Recent advancements in NLP have spurred significant interest in analyzing social media text data for identifying linguistic features indicative of mental health issues. However, the domain of Expressive Narrative Stories (ENS)-deeply personal and emotionally charged narratives that offer rich psychological insights-remains underexplored. This study bridges this gap by utilizing a dataset sourced from Reddit, focusing on ENS from individuals with and without self-declared depression. Our research evaluates the utility of advanced language models, BERT and MentalBERT, against traditional models. We find that traditional models are sensitive to the absence of explicit topic-related words, which could risk their potential to extend applications to ENS that lack clear mental health terminology. Despite MentalBERT is design to better handle psychiatric contexts, it demonstrated a dependency on specific topic words for classification accuracy, raising concerns about its application when explicit mental health terms are sparse (P-value |
