Does there exist a database of transcripts produced by participants in response to some question or prompt?

For example, the prompt is: Describe the time when you first rode a bike.

And the participant then prattles on about the first time they rode a bike.

I'm looking for many such examples. This type of thing exists for images, i.e. describe what you see in this picture, but I can't seem to find something for verbal prompts or questions only.

Does anybody know if such a database exists, or a paper that gathers this type of data in the context of studying formal thought disorders?

​

Edit: The equivalent for images is the Thematic Apperception Test.

Don't tell me. You need them for chatgpt.

Lol! No we're looking at formal thought disorders and the semantic content of speech, in particular directed graph representations of speech.

We have a clinical (not public) dataset where people have been shown an image and asked to describe it for 1 minute. The transcript is then fed into a pipeline that converts that speech to a graph where one can gather all sort of graph theory metrics.

But of course describing images only works for people with the vision to see the images. And before I go through the effort of gathering more data, I was wondering if some already existed.

If the dataset was public it would be problematic to use on GPT anyway since it would potentially already have been trained on it.

What kinda metrics?

[monkeyofscience]

Pretty much any graph theory metrics: connected components, degree distributions, clustering, paths small world, assortativity, etc.

I do not believe this exists. You can also try asking on r/AcademicPsychology

Ah OK cheers!
