Multimodal depression screening estimates risk from speech, visual behavior and language. Current methods mainly predict labels, with limited evidence of departures from a non-depressed reference. Recording-level supervision also leaves fine-grained emotional dynamics unannotated. Motivated by emotional inertia, the persistence of affect, InertiaMPDD learns healthy next-state patterns using a world-model-inspired latent predictor. Using pretrained multimodal representations, it predicts from observed history and context. Reference deviation, residual decay rate and a Jacobian spectral descriptor form reference-derived emotional dynamics descriptors, evaluated as candidate proxy biomarkers for standalone screening and personalized decision correction. Across five cohorts from four datasets, fusion reaches 98.41% F1 on D-Vlog and 84.98% on LMVD. Standalone descriptors outperform fixed additive fusion on MPDD but discriminate weakly on AVEC2014. These findings distinguish reference informativeness from fusion benefit and reveal context-dependent utility.
