What’s new, 2013

The Polish study by Czachowski et al published by PLoS One in 2011 demonstrated the psychometric properties of using all three versions of PSYCHLOPS: pre-therapy, during therapy and post-therapy. A further paper based on the qualitative findings from this work is ready for submission in early 2013.

Helgi Hedinsson et al have completed their comparison of PSYCHLOPS and CORE-OM in an Icelandic population which has just been published by European Journal of Psychological Assessment.

Paula Alves at Lisbon University Institute (ISCTE-Instituto Universitário de Lisboa), has been awarded PhD funding to study the integration of patient generated measures (PSYCHLOPS and the PQ) with standardised measures (CORE-OM and PHQ9). Starting in April 2013, this study will be conducted in addiction treatment centres and is part of a broader project on ‘personalised health research’ led by Célia Sales.

The UPBEAT study led by Andre Tylee at the Institute of Psychiatry has recruited over 800 patients with Coronary Heart Disease. Content analysis of freetext PSYCHLOPS responses was used to stratify the sample and compare psychometric scores of patients in each PSYCHLOPS category. This work will be submitted for publication in early 2013.

Emma Godfrey is leading on the validation and testing of PSYCHLOPS Kids. The first study involving this new measure is expected to be published in 2013.
