Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of mental illness assessment, and in particular to a stroop-based mental illness assessment device, method and storage medium. Background Art

[0002] Mental illness seriously affects the patient's life and social function. It will cause the brain's functional activities to become disordered, which may lead to impairment of cognition, emotion, behavior, will and other functions. At present, the diagnosis of mental illness mainly relies on clinicians to interview and observe the patient's behavior, or use psychological paradigms to detect the patient's mental state. Among them, the psychological paradigm can be the emotional stroop paradigm.

[0003] However, the existing emotional stroop paradigm requires patients to directly complete a series of facial expression judgments in a certain situation. It is necessary to judge whether the emotions represented by the picture expression correspond to the text prompts. The emotions represented by the expression and the emotions expressed by the text may be positive or negative. Regardless of whether the patient makes a correct or incorrect judgment, the patient's accuracy and reaction time will be recorded. After the patient completes a round of testing, the patient's current mental state can be evaluated based on the reaction time and its accuracy. However, this detection method that directly requires patients to perform emotional stroop paradigm tasks cannot obtain the patient's true cognition of emotional expressions. Therefore, there may be a situation where the patient's tendency to suffer from mental illness is misjudged due to the patient's misunderstanding of emotional expressions, which seriously affects the accuracy of the test results. Summary of the invention

[0016] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present application, the present application is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation examples. The embodiments of the present application are further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation examples, but are not intended to limit the present application.

[0018] All terms (including technical terms or scientific terms) used in this application have the same meaning as those understood by ordinary technicians in the field to which this application belongs, unless otherwise specifically defined. It should also be understood that terms defined in general dictionaries should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant technology, and should not be interpreted in an idealized or extremely formal sense, unless explicitly defined here. Techniques and equipment known to ordinary technicians in the relevant field may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the techniques and equipment should be considered as part of the specification.

[0019] Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the structure of the mental illness assessment device according to the embodiment of the present application is shown. The mental illness assessment device 100 includes at least one processor 101, and may also include a display 102, wherein the display 102 can be used to display the associated screen of the subject performing the pre-task and the target task of the emotional stroop. The display 102 may include, for example, a liquid crystal display (LCD), a light emitting diode display (LED), a plasma display, or any other type of display.

[0020] The processor 101 is configured to execute Figure 2 Steps S201-S203 are shown. In step S201, a pre-task of emotional stroop is provided, and the pre-task includes: presenting preset images for reflecting different emotions, and the preset images include at least one emotional display screen and at least one emotional description, so that the subject can perform a matching operation on the emotional description corresponding to the emotional display screen. The emotional display screen can be a cartoon expression or an animal expression for reflecting different emotions, and there is no limitation on this, as long as it can be used to show different emotions.

[0021] The emotion description words may be one or more of calm, happy, angry, fearful, sad, surprised, etc., or other words that can describe emotions, and there is no limitation on this. The emotion reflected by the emotion display screen in the preset image is one of the emotions represented by the emotion description words, so as to avoid the situation where the emotion reflected by the emotion display screen has no corresponding emotion description words displayed.

[0022] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, on the display interface of the display 102, there are displayed an emotion display screen reflecting calm emotions and emotion descriptions describing calmness, happiness, anger, and fear respectively. The examinee can select an emotion description from the four emotion descriptions for the emotion display screen to match the emotion display screen. For example, if the examinee thinks that the emotion reflected by the emotion display screen displayed on the display interface of the display 102 is calm, then "calm" can be clicked to generate a matching relationship between the emotion display screen and "calm". Similarly, if the examinee thinks that the emotion reflected by the emotion display screen is angry, then "angry" can be clicked to generate a matching relationship between the emotion display screen and "angry". When performing the pre-task, the examinee can modify the emotion display screen and emotion description that have been matched, but only one emotion description needs to be matched for each emotion display screen, so as to prevent the examinee from matching multiple emotion descriptions for each emotion display screen, and failing to obtain the true situation of the emotion understanding represented by the emotion display screen.

[0023] In this embodiment, there is no limitation on the presentation method of the emotion display screen and emotion description words in the preset image. For example, only one emotion display screen may be displayed on a display interface, and a group of emotion description words may be displayed corresponding to the emotion display screen. Alternatively, multiple emotion display screens may be displayed on a display interface, and an emotion description word may be displayed at the same time. Preferably, all emotion display screens may be displayed simultaneously on the same display interface. In this case, a group of emotion description words may be displayed corresponding to each emotion display screen. In this way, displaying all emotion display screens simultaneously on the same display interface can facilitate the subject to distinguish the emotions represented by the given emotion display screen, thereby reducing the error rate of the subject's judgment on the emotions represented by the emotion display screen. This is only used as an example, and there is no specific limitation on the presentation method of the emotion display screen and emotion description words in the preset image.

[0024] In addition, all the emotional display pictures and emotional descriptions that appear in the target task must be presented in the pre-task, so that the examinee can match all the emotional display pictures and emotional descriptions that appear in the target task. It can also be understood that only the emotional display pictures and emotional descriptions that appear in the pre-task can be presented in the target task, but the emotional display pictures and emotional descriptions that appear in the pre-task are not necessarily presented in the target task. In this way, it is prevented that the emotional display pictures and / or emotional descriptions that have not been matched by the examinee in the pre-task appear in the target task, thereby causing the examinee to have anxiety and tension when performing the target task, and the examinee may have a misunderstanding of emotional expressions, resulting in a low accuracy problem in assessing the examinee's tendency to suffer from mental illness. For example, in the target task, an emotional display picture reflecting "fear, calmness, happiness, sadness" appears, and at the same time, the emotional descriptions of "fear, calmness, happiness, sadness" are displayed. In the pre-task, the examinee is required to match all the emotional display pictures and emotional descriptions that appear in the above target tasks.

[0025] Based on the preset image, the examinee can perform a matching operation to match an emotional description for each emotional display screen. In this process, the examinee can be familiar with the emotional display screen in advance, distinguish the emotions represented by the emotional display screen in advance, reduce the blind obedience caused by unfamiliarity with the emotional display screen when performing the target task, and make the examinee relax when performing the target task, and will not have adverse emotions such as irritability and emotional excitement. By performing the matching operation, it is possible to familiarize each emotional display screen in advance, and it is also conducive to correctly understanding the emotions reflected by each emotional display screen. For example, when the examinee is performing the pre-task, when performing the matching operation, the emotional display screen A reflecting calmness is mistakenly understood as "fear", but when the emotional display screen B reflecting fear appears on the display interface, the examinee may be able to realize that the emotional display screen B is used to reflect "fear", and the emotional display screen A is used to reflect "calmness", thereby realizing the self-correction of the examinee in the process of performing the pre-task and reducing the situation of misunderstanding the emotional display screen.

[0026] In step S202, after the pre-task, a target task is provided, wherein the target task specifically includes: presenting multiple groups of the emotion display screens and the emotion description words at intervals, and each group only includes one emotion display screen and one emotion description word; wherein a second corresponding relationship is preset between the emotion display screens and the emotion description words. Specifically, Figure 1 The display interface provided by the display 102 displays multiple groups of emotion display pictures and emotion description words in sequence according to the preset order of the processor's built-in program, or displays multiple groups of emotion display pictures and emotion description words at random intervals. There is no specific limitation on the presentation order of the emotion display pictures and emotion description words in the target task.

[0027] For example, on the display interface of the display 102, the emotion display screen and the emotion description are presented in a preset order or randomly, and the emotion display screen C reflecting calmness is displayed first, and the emotion description of "calm" is displayed at the same time. Then, the emotion display screen D reflecting happiness is displayed, and the emotion description of "calm" is displayed at the same time. The subject can perform a judgment operation on whether the emotion display screen matches the emotion description by clicking the button "yes" or "no" on the display interface, or perform a judgment operation by triggering other control keys, and there is no specific limitation on this.

[0028] If the subject believes that the emotion reflected by the emotion display screen C matches "calm", the subject can click the "yes" button on the display interface to perform a confirmation judgment operation. If the subject believes that it does not match, the subject can click the "no" button on the display interface to perform a negative judgment operation. The second corresponding relationship can be understood as a default correct corresponding relationship. For example, the emotion display screen used to reflect calmness corresponds to the emotion description of "calm", the emotion display screen used to reflect happiness corresponds to the emotion description of "happy", and the emotion display screen used to reflect anger corresponds to the emotion description of "angry".

[0029] The examinee may have a mental illness, which reduces his cognitive processing ability for emotions and causes errors in his understanding of emotions. Therefore, for examinees with impaired cognitive function, it is very likely that they will understand the emotional display screen reflecting anger as "happy", and will understand the emotional display screen reflecting calmness as "fear", etc. By performing the pre-task and matching operation, the examinee may clearly understand the examinee's understanding of the emotions reflected by the emotional display screen. For example, the examinee will understand the emotional display screen reflecting anger as "happy". When performing the matching operation, the examinee can match the emotional description of "happy" for the emotional display screen reflecting anger. In this way, the examinee performs the pre-task and then performs the target task. Based on the matching operation of the emotional description of each emotional display screen when the examinee performs the pre-task, it can reduce the situation where there is a misjudgment in the assessment of mental illness due to the examinee's problems in cognition of emotions.

[0030] In step S203, in response to the subject's judgment operation of judging whether the emotion display screen matches the emotion description, the subject's tendency to suffer from mental illness is estimated based on the comparison result of the judgment result and the second corresponding relationship, so that the accuracy of assessing the subject's tendency to suffer from mental illness can be improved. That is to say, in the process of the subject performing the target task, according to the judgment operation performed by the subject, the corresponding judgment result is counted, and the comparison result is obtained based on the judgment result and the second corresponding relationship. The comparison result can be the accuracy rate of the subject's correct matching of the emotion display screen with the correct emotion description, and the subject's tendency to suffer from mental illness can be assessed based on the accuracy rate.

[0031] This is only used as an example, wherein the specific contents such as the judgment result and the comparison result are not limited and can be configured by the user.

[0032] Specifically, Figure 3A schematic diagram of a display interface for providing a target task is shown. When the target task officially begins, the subject will first be informed of how to operate during the experiment. For example, "The formal experiment will begin soon" is displayed in the display interface 301 to remind the subject that the formal experiment is about to begin, so that the subject can be mentally prepared. The instruction "Please judge whether the expression picture is consistent with the text, press ← if consistent, press → if inconsistent" is given on the display interface 302, and the time is set to 10s. After the instruction ends, "Please stay relaxed" is displayed on the display interface 303 for 30s, so that the subject can perform the target task with a stable emotion. The design of the prompt can better play the role of prompting. When the subject gets the prompt that the formal experiment will start soon, on the one hand, he can know that the experimental task is about to begin, so as to be mentally prepared to perform the emotional stroop task; on the other hand, it can make the subject's attention relatively concentrated. After informing the subject that the experimental task is about to begin, the subject takes a 30-second rest and is prompted to relax. After completing the rest task, "Task Start" is displayed on the display interface 304 to prompt the start of the task. The time is 3 seconds, and after 3 seconds, the subject enters the target task of the formal emotional stroop paradigm.

[0033] In some embodiments, the formal experiment includes 3 rounds of 30s rest tasks and 3 rounds of target tasks. During each round of target tasks, an emotion display screen and a gaze screen between two emotion display screens are presented. There are 20 emotion display screens in each round of target tasks, and four types of faces are randomly presented, including calm, happy, angry or fear, etc., and emotional descriptions (i.e. calm, happy, angry, fear) that are consistent or inconsistent with them are written on each emotion display screen. The emotion display screen can be a display interface presented to the subject, and can include an image representing the emotion and a surrounding area representing the emotion image. The emotional description can be displayed in an area of ​​the emotion display screen, and the area does not block the facial parts (e.g., eyes, lip corners) that are very important in emotion recognition, wherein each emotion display screen presentation time is 1s. For example, on the display interface 305, an expression picture is displayed, and "calm" is displayed on the expression picture, and "Judge whether the picture and text are consistent" is displayed below the expression picture. After 1s, the gaze screen, i.e., the display interface 306, is entered, and only the gaze point "+" is displayed in the display interface 306, so that the subject can concentrate, and each gaze screen is presented for 3s. After 3 seconds, the display interface 307 is entered, in which an emoticon picture is displayed and "angry" is displayed on the emoticon picture, and "determine whether the picture and text are consistent" is displayed below the emoticon picture. The display interfaces after the display interface 307 are not described one by one, but are only used as examples for ease of understanding, and do not constitute a specific limitation of the claimed solution.

[0034] In this way, after the subject has completed the entire target task, the judgment results of the subject's judgment operation are counted, and the behavioral data of the subject when performing the target task can also be counted as an auxiliary judgment basis for assessing the subject's tendency to suffer from mental illness. Among them, the behavioral data can be the empty operation situation during the subject's performance of the target task, or other behavioral data that can assist in assessing mental illness, which is not specifically limited.

[0035] First, the present application provides a pre-task before the examinee performs the target task, and obtains the match between the presented emotion display screen and the emotion description of the examinee, so as to understand the true situation of the examinee's cognition of emotional expressions, and based on this, judge whether the examinee has errors in understanding the emotions expressed by the emotion display screen, thereby solving the problem of low accuracy in assessing the examinee's tendency to suffer from mental illness due to the examinee's misunderstanding of emotional expressions, and improving the accuracy of assessing the examinee's tendency to suffer from mental illness. In addition, the present application enables the examinee to perform pre-tasks and also enables the examinee to be familiar with the emotion display screen in advance, and distinguish the emotions represented by the emotion display screen before performing the target task, reducing the blindness of the examinee's direct judgment of the emotions represented by the emotion display screen when performing the target task, and also avoiding as much as possible the problem of the examinee's nervousness causing him to have an erroneous understanding of the emotional expressions represented by the emotion display screen when performing the target task.

[0036] In some embodiments of the present application, the processor 101 includes one or more processing devices of general-purpose processing devices, such as a microprocessor, a central processing unit (CPU), a graphics processing unit (GPU), etc. More specifically, the processor 101 can be a complex instruction set computing (CISC) microprocessor, a reduced instruction set computing (RISC) microprocessor, a very long instruction word (VLIW) microprocessor, a processor running other instruction sets, or a processor running a combination of instruction sets. The processor 101 can also be one or more special-purpose processing devices, such as an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a field programmable gate array (FPGA), a digital signal processor (DSP), a system on a chip (SoC), etc.

[0037] In some embodiments of the present application, the processor 101 is further configured to: in a pre-task, in response to the subject's associative operation of matching the correspondence between the emotion display screen and the emotion description, establish a first correspondence. The first correspondence may be consistent with the second correspondence, or it may not be consistent with the second correspondence. For example, in the process of the subject performing the pre-task, if all the displayed emotion display screens can be matched with the correct emotion description, for example, the subject can match the emotion display screen reflecting anger to the emotion description of "angry", can match the emotion display screen reflecting calmness to the emotion description of "calm", and can match the emotion display screen reflecting happiness to the emotion description of "happy", then it can be considered that the first correspondence is consistent with the second correspondence.

[0038] In addition, if the subject believes that the emotional display screen used to reflect anger matches the emotional description of "fear" and the emotional display screen used to reflect happiness matches the emotional description of "anger" when performing the pre-task, then it can be determined that the first correspondence of the subject includes that the emotional display screen used to reflect anger corresponds to the emotional description of "fear", and the emotional display screen used to reflect happiness corresponds to the emotional description of "anger". In fact, the second correspondence is that the emotional display screen used to reflect anger corresponds to the emotional description of "anger", and the emotional display screen used to reflect happiness corresponds to the emotional description of "happy". At this time, the first correspondence does not match the second correspondence.

[0039] Estimating the subject's tendency to suffer from mental illness based on the comparison result of the judgment result and the second corresponding relationship further includes: using the comparison result and the first corresponding relationship to evaluate the subject's tendency to suffer from mental illness.

[0040] Specifically, based on the first correspondence established by the examinee when performing the pre-task, it can reflect the examinee's cognition of different emotional display pictures, which is used to assist in judging the examinee's tendency to suffer from mental illness, so as to improve the accuracy of the judgment. When the examinee performs the target task, due to the limitation of his cognitive level of emotional expression, he may have a different understanding of different emotional display pictures from the normal situation. Simply relying on the obtained comparison results to estimate the examinee's tendency to suffer from mental illness without considering the examinee's true understanding of emotional expression will lead to inaccurate evaluation results. Therefore, the first correspondence is introduced to assist in the evaluation, so that it can effectively eliminate the situation of misjudgment caused by the examinee's misunderstanding of the emotions reflected by the emotional display picture. It can be understood that for the examinee, the first correspondence is the correct understanding of emotional expression. For example, in the pre-task, the examinee matches the emotional display picture used to reflect anger to the emotional description of "fear", and matches the emotional display picture used to reflect happiness to the emotional description of "anger", so as to establish the first correspondence. In the subsequent process of executing the target task, the subject will make judgments according to the first correspondence (that is, according to the subject's own understanding of emotional expressions). Therefore, combining the comparison results with the first correspondence to analyze and judge the subject's tendency to suffer from mental illness can improve the accuracy of mental illness assessment.

[0041] In some embodiments of the present application, the preset image includes at least one emotion display screen and multiple emotion description words, or the preset image includes multiple emotion display screens and at least one emotion description word. Specifically, for example, on the display interface, an emotion display screen for reflecting anger, as well as four emotion description words such as anger, calm, happiness, and fear can be displayed, so that the subject can select an emotion description word from the above four emotion description words for the currently presented emotion display screen to match the currently presented emotion display screen. For another example, four emotion display screens reflecting anger, happiness, calmness and fear can be displayed simultaneously on the same display interface, and emotional descriptive words of anger, happiness, calmness or fear can be displayed at the same time, so that the subject can select an emotion display screen from the four emotion display screens to match the currently displayed emotion descriptive words. It should be noted that when making a selection, the subject can only select one emotion descriptive word for one emotion display screen, and the same emotion descriptive word can be selected as the emotion descriptive word for different emotion display screens. During the subject matching process, try to avoid human intervention as much as possible, and ensure that the subject completes the matching of the emotion display screen and the emotion descriptive words according to his or her own understanding, so as to obtain the true situation of his or her understanding of emotional expressions.

[0042] In some embodiments of the present application, the processor 101 is further configured to: provide a target task when the first corresponding relationship is consistent with the second corresponding relationship; and / or,

[0043] When the first correspondence relationship is inconsistent with the second correspondence relationship, the pre-task is provided again to obtain a third correspondence relationship, and when the third correspondence relationship is consistent with the first correspondence relationship, the target task is provided.

[0044] The subject's performance of the pre-task can help the doctor determine whether the subject is making random judgments. Specifically, since the subject may have a mental illness or poor cooperation, there is a possibility that there will be random choices when performing the pre-task. Therefore, when the first correspondence relationship is consistent with the second correspondence relationship, it can be shown that the subject's attitude in performing the task is relatively correct, and it can also be shown that the subject has a correct understanding of the emotions reflected in each emotion display screen. Therefore, a target task can be provided to allow the subject to enter the formal experiment.

[0045] In the case where the first correspondence is inconsistent with the second correspondence, it is possible that the subject made random choices of the emotion display screen and the emotion description when performing the pre-task. Therefore, the pre-task can be provided again to obtain a third correspondence, and the target task can be provided when the third correspondence is consistent with the first correspondence. In this way, since the third correspondence is consistent with the first correspondence, it is possible to exclude the situation where the subject makes random choices of the emotion display screen and the emotion description when performing the pre-task, thereby assisting in the assessment of the subject's tendency to suffer from mental illness based on the first correspondence.

[0046] In some embodiments of the present application, the processor 101 is further configured to: when the first correspondence relationship is inconsistent with the second correspondence relationship, provide the pre-task again to obtain a third correspondence relationship, and when the coincidence degree of the third correspondence relationship and the second correspondence relationship is not less than 50%, provide the target task. That is to say, when the subject performs the pre-task multiple times and the obtained third correspondence relationship is still inconsistent with the second correspondence relationship and there is a large deviation, as long as the coincidence degree of the third correspondence relationship and the second correspondence relationship is not less than 50%, the target task can be provided, so that the subject can perform the target task after completing the pre-task to evaluate mental illness. Specifically, when the first correspondence relationship is inconsistent with the second correspondence relationship, since the subject has certain cognitive errors about the emotional expressions shown in the emotional display screen, there may also be a situation of wrong selection when the subject performs the pre-task again. As long as the coincidence degree of the third correspondence relationship obtained this time and the second correspondence relationship is not less than 50%, it means that the patient does not randomly select the emotional display screen and the emotional description words, and can continue to perform the subsequent target task to obtain a comparison result. Using the comparison result and the third correspondence relationship to evaluate the tendency of the subject to suffer from mental illness can improve the accuracy of evaluating the tendency of the subject to suffer from mental illness.

[0047] In some embodiments of the present application, the processor 101 is further configured to: when the subject has not completed the matching operation, highlight the emotional display screen that has not been selected. For example, on the display interface, there may be emotional display screens reflecting anger and happiness shown at the same time. If the subject has performed the matching of the emotional description words for the emotional display screen reflecting anger, but has not performed the matching of the emotional description words for the emotional display screen reflecting happiness, the emotional display screen reflecting happiness will be highlighted with a larger area relative to the emotional display screen reflecting anger to prompt the subject to perform the matching of the emotional description words for the highlighted emotional display screen, so as to ensure that the subject can perform the matching operation of the emotional description words for each emotional display screen. Among them, the form of highlighting the emotional display screen that has not been selected is not specifically limited here, as long as the highlighting effect can be achieved.

[0048] In the pre-task, it is stipulated that the matching operation should be completed within a certain period of time. The matching time for each emotional display screen and emotional description can be set longer than the time for judging the consistency of each emotional display screen and emotional description in the target task. For example, if the time for judging the consistency of each emotional display screen and emotional description in the target task is 1 s, in the pre-task, the matching time for each emotional display screen and emotional description can be set to 30 s, so as to reserve a relatively long time for the subject to become familiar with the emotional display screen in advance and enable the subject to complete the matching according to his own understanding of emotional expressions, which can reduce the situation that the subject cannot complete the matching according to his own true thoughts due to anxiety and tension during the matching operation.

[0049] In some embodiments of the present application, the comparison result includes calculating the accuracy rate of the judgment operation, and the judgment result further includes recording the reaction time of the judgment operation. The processor 101 is further configured to: estimate the tendency of the subject to suffer from mental illness according to the accuracy rate and the reaction time. In this way, the accuracy of evaluating the tendency of the subject to suffer from mental illness can be further improved through comprehensive analysis of the accuracy rate and the reaction time. Specifically, if the judgment time of the subject for whether an emotional display screen matches the emotional description displayed simultaneously with the emotional display screen is relatively long, it indicates that the cognitive function of the subject is damaged to a certain extent. Based on the comprehensive judgment of the correct rate and reaction time of the operation, the accuracy of evaluating the tendency of the subject to suffer from mental illness is higher.

[0050] In some embodiments of the present application, the processor 101 is further configured to: when executing the target task, display a first prompt on the emotional display screen to prompt the subject to judge whether the emotional display screen matches the emotional description. The emotional description is more prominent than the first prompt, and does not block the features of the emotional display screen used to identify emotions. Specifically, as Figure 3 shown in the display interface 305, there is an emotional display screen reflecting calmness, and the emotional description "calm" is also displayed in the emotional display screen. Among them, the emotional description "calm" does not block the features such as eyes and mouth in the emotional display screen used to reflect emotions. Moreover, a first prompt "Judge whether the picture and the text are consistent" is displayed below the emotional display screen, and the prominence of the first prompt is lower than that of the emotional description to avoid the first prompt distracting the subject's attention.

[0051] In addition, the first prompt being "Judge whether the picture and the text are consistent" is only an example, and it can also be other texts that can play a prompting role.

[0052] In some embodiments of the present application, the processor 101 is further configured such that the probability that the correspondence between the emotion description words presented in the target task and the emotion display screen is consistent with the second correspondence is 15-25%. For example, in the target task, there are 20 emotion display screens in one round of the target task, and an emotion description word that is consistent or inconsistent with each emotion display screen is written. When the probability is 25%, that is, there are 4 emotion description words that are consistent with the emotion display screen and 16 emotion description words that are inconsistent with the emotion display screen. In this way, the confidence of the subject when performing the target task can be ensured, and it is prevented that the confidence of the subject is reduced due to the fact that most of the emotion description words do not correspond to the associated emotion display screen. At the same time, it is also necessary to ensure that there is a situation where the emotion description word in the target task does not correspond to the associated emotion display screen, so as to effectively detect the subject's cognitive processing ability for emotions, and further obtain more accurate evaluation data, and improve the accuracy of evaluating the tendency of the subject to suffer from mental illness.

[0053] In some embodiments of the present application, before the subject performs the target task, a second prompt is displayed to prompt the subject to perform different judgment operations. Specifically, as Figure 3 shown in the display interface 302 in, a second prompt of "Please judge whether the expression picture and the text are consistent. Press ← if they are consistent and press → if they are inconsistent" is displayed. In this way, the subject is prompted to perform different judgment operations, so that the subject can naturally transition from performing the pre-task to performing the target task. In addition, the second prompt of "Please judge whether the expression picture and the text are consistent. Press ← if they are consistent and press → if they are inconsistent" is only used as an example, and it can also be other texts that can play a prompting role.

[0054] In some embodiments of the present application, a method for evaluating mental illness based on stroop is provided, including the following steps, such as Figure 2As shown, in step S201, a pre-task of the emotional Stroop is provided. The pre-task includes presenting preset images for reflecting different emotions. The preset images include at least one emotion display screen and at least one emotion description, enabling the subject to perform a matching operation on the emotion description corresponding to the emotion display screen. In step S202, after the pre-task, a target task is provided. The target task specifically includes presenting multiple groups of the emotion display screens and the emotion descriptions at intervals, and each group only contains one emotion display screen and one emotion description. Among them, there is a second corresponding relationship preset between the emotion display screen and the emotion description. In step S203, in response to the subject's judgment operation of whether the emotion display screen matches the emotion description, the tendency of the subject to suffer from mental illness is estimated based on the comparison result between the judgment result and the second corresponding relationship. By providing a pre-task before the subject executes the target task and obtaining the matching situation of the presented emotion display screen and emotion description by the subject, the true situation of the subject's cognition of emotional expressions can be understood. Based on this, it can be judged whether there is an error in the subject's understanding of the emotion represented by the emotion display screen, thus solving the problem of low accuracy in evaluating the tendency of the subject to suffer from mental illness due to the subject's incorrect understanding of emotional expressions, and improving the accuracy of evaluating the tendency of the subject to suffer from mental illness.
