GADVOX – the German Anxiety and Depression Voice Examination Dataset – is a German-language speech corpus for research on the automated detection and severity estimation of depression and anxiety from naturalistic free speech.

Each of the 1,004 adult participants completed the PHQ-9 and GAD-7 questionnaires and answered ten structured free-speech prompts, recorded remotely on their own devices.

The dataset contains voice recordings and health data. It is intended for non-commercial scientific research and will be made available to vetted researchers under a Data Use Agreement.
