Researchers have developed a novel method for automatically coding Motivational Interviewing (MI) sessions using advanced audio-language models (ALMs). This approach integrates multimodal signals, analyzing both the spoken content and the acoustic properties of client speech. By employing self-consistency reasoning across multiple analytical prompts and stochastic samples, the system achieved improved accuracy and robustness in identifying client behaviors and predicting outcomes, outperforming baseline methods.
