Cross-Platform Detection of Psychiatric Hospitalization via Social Media Data: Comparison Study.

We demonstrated that models built on one platform's data to predict critical mental health treatment outcomes such as hospitalization do not generalize to another platform. In our case, this is because different social media platforms consistently reflect different segments of participants' identities. With the changing ecosystem of social media use among different demographic groups and as web-based identities continue to become fragmented across platforms, further research on holistic approaches to harnessing these diverse data sources is required.
