Abstract：The symptoms of mental illness are mostly associated with changes in speech.Speech is an integration of cognitive and physiological information.Its recording equipment is simple,and patients find it difficult to conceal symptoms,making it an excellent objective biomarker for mental illness.This paper reviews the speech features and development trends of common mental illnesses in recent years.Currently,phonetic research requires large-scale longitudinal studies to identify speech features associated with disorders such as personality disorders,so as to enable the establishment of association with other biological markers,thereby advancing the development of multimodal health technologies and remote screening tools.
