Towards a Computational Framework for Psychological Formulation: Conceptual Principles

2026-01-28

Abstract excerpt

<p>Case formulation plays a central role in psychological therapy, yet its narrative form limits empirical analysis and digital integration. This paper develops a theoretical framework that treats formulation as a structured representation of causal cognition—a generative process linking clinical observations to explanatory hypotheses. Drawing on advances in large language models (LLMs) and graph-based methods, it...
