Abstract
Depressed people and non-depressed people differ in their language (Al-Mosaiwi & Johnstone, 2018). However, this finding is almost entirely based on written language studies. To investigate the spoken language correlates of depression, a collection of (English-speaking) vlogs of depressed and non-depressed YouTubers is presented and analyzed.
