Your voice may reveal hidden depression: new study tests speech screening
NCT ID NCT07578155
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested whether a speech analysis platform called AcceXible can accurately screen for depression and anxiety in university students. Over 900 students aged 16-25 provided voice samples through open-ended speaking tasks. The platform analyzed acoustic and linguistic features to see if it could identify those with depression or anxiety, compared to standard questionnaires. The goal is to develop a quick, digital screening tool that could help catch mental health issues earlier.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a quick, non-invasive way to screen for depression and anxiety using just a voice recording.
