This innovative monograph introduces a measurement-based framework
for effective treatment of patients with mood disorders,
personality disorders, and schizophrenia. Rooted firmly in
principles of pharmacotherapy and clinical psychometrics, the
book's signature diagram balances rating scale results and patient
self-reported progress along three angles: therapeutic effects,
adverse effects, and quality of life. The author's choices of
measures are brief, valid, widely used, and easy for clinicians to
administer and patients to understand. But rather than being a
mechanistic or an impersonal formula, this system is shown as a
science-based means of fostering constructive collaboration between
patient and therapist, leading to greater patient well-being.
Included in the coverage: * Negative mental health: the ordinary
symptom-orientated mental disorders. * The basic diagram of
personality dimensions. * Self-reported symptom scales within the
basic diagram. * Clinician-administered symptom scales within the
basic diagram. * The pharmacopsychometric triangle in
measurement-based care. * Diagnostic rating scales. * A practical
outcome evaluation plan. Offering a medical level of precision to
mental health, Measurement-Based Care in Mental Disorders should
interest health care providers at all levels, particularly
physicians and staff in primary care settings, and in psychiatric
in- and outpatient clinics, including psychiatrists, psychologists,
nurses, and social workers.
