... For instance, Vu et al. [5] used pretrained BERT to encode participants' social media posts and the questions from the Big-Five personality questionnaire, to predict individual-level responses to out-of-sample Big-Five questions. Pellegrini et al. [42] used the skip-gram embedding algorithm [1] to encode psychiatric questionnaires and patients' responses to those questionnaires. They showed that the resulting embeddings can be used for effective diagnosis of some mental health conditions. ...
