System and method for computerized psychological content analysis of computer and media generated communications to produce communications management support, indications and warnings of dangerous behavior, assessment of media images, and personnel selection support

Abstract

At least one computer-mediated communication produced by or received by an author is collected and parsed to identify categories of information within it. The categories of information are processed with at least one analysis to quantify at least one type of information in each category. A first output communication is generated regarding the at least one computer-mediated communication, describing the psychological state, attitudes or characteristics of the author of the communication. A second output communication is generated when a difference between the quantification of at least one type of information for at least one category and a reference for the at least one category is detected involving a psychological state, attitude or characteristic of the author to which a responsive action should be taken.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method of computer analysis of at least one communication originated from a person, comprising:
 receiving with a computer the at least one communication with each communication being comprised of a group of words originated by the person;   processing a text of the received group of words in each of the received at least one communication with a computer to determine risk posed by the person represented in the text of the at least one communication; and   in response to the determined risk posed by the person represented in the text of the at least one communication, generating with a computer an output communication pertaining to the risk posed by the person represented in the text obtained from the processing of the text of the received at least one communication.
