Correlations between scores on the psychiatric measures (total and subscale) and the neurocognitive measures were examined.
Older adult participants (N = 110; M age = 75 years) completed self-report, clinician-rated and diagnostic psychiatric measures and a neuropsychiatric battery.
We investigated changes in serum melatonin levels, cortisol levels, body temperature, and psychiatric measures with a randomized, double-blind, cross-over, placebo-controlled design of two 3-day admissions.
Conclusion: There was a minimal relationship between psychiatric measures that incorporate subjective assessment of cognitive function, and objective neurocognitive measures in nontreatment-seeking cocaine users, consistent with previous findings in other samples of substance users.
Design: Ninety-four acocaineocaine users not seeking treatment (73 male, 21 female) were administered two self-report psychiatric measures (the ADHD Rating Scale – Fourth Edition; ARS-IV), and the Beck Depression Inventory – Second Edition; (BDI-II), and a battery of tests measuring attention, executive, psychomotor, visual and verbal learning, visuospatial, and language functions.
The current study of 371 community mental health clients with severe mental illness examined differences in frequency of common lifetime trauma and other stressful events in clients with schizophrenia spectrum and major mood disorders in order to gauge the unique variance in posttraumatic stress symptoms explained by trauma/stressful events when controlling for other psychiatric measures.
It is possible to predict fitness to drive through neuropsychological tests or psychiatric measures.
Providing a personal narrative focusing on detailed patient subjective experiences complements reports that give insight into the short- and long-term effects of DBS on established psychiatric measures and neurologic activity.
In a multivariable analysis of migraineurs that considered sex, number of medications used, migraine frequency (days) in the past year, psychiatric measures, and number of comorbidities as potential predictors of PC-PLC activity, only number of comorbidities was independently significantly related to PC-PLC (parameter estimate (SE) = 1.77 (0.58), p = 0.009; Table 3).
