This paper proposes ERD, a system that utilizes Large Language Models (LLMs) for cognitive distortion classification in psychotherapy. The authors recognize the importance of identifying cognitive distortions from patients’ utterances, especially in cognitive behavioral therapy. ERD improves LLM-based performance by introducing two additional modules: part extraction and multi-agent debate. Experimental results on a public dataset demonstrate improved multi-class F1 scores and binary specificity scores, particularly in debiasing baseline methods with high false positive rates. The proposed method also benefits from providing the summary of multi-agent debate to LLMs.

This paper uses computers to help people get better therapy. It’s like having a super smart assistant that can understand what you’re saying and help therapists figure out what’s going on in your mind. The researchers came up with a new way to make these computer systems better by adding some extra steps: finding the important parts of what you said, and then having multiple people discuss why it’s important. This helps the system be more accurate and not get confused as easily. It could make therapy even more helpful for people.
