Development of a Smart Assessment System for Childhood Psychiatric Disorders

Overview

About this study

The patient will be presented with a brief screener that uses a decision-making model to programmatically present additional modules and questions based on item endorsement. As such, psychiatric assessment can be standardized while simultaneously individualized to the patient. The assessment system under development has the potential to improve diagnostic accuracy, triage patients to the most appropriate initial appointments, provide data for quality improvement, initiate ehealth care, and provide the infrastructure to develop a state-of-the-art psychiatric research center.
