28
Q

👨‍🔬PSYCHOLOGY:

Outline research by Read et al.

A
  • Reported schizophrenia diagnosis reliability was only 63% in 2004.
  • Noted that in a 1970 study 69% of US psychiatrists diagnosed schizophrenia but only 2% of British did.
  • Suggests diagnosis has never been reliable.
29
Q

👨‍🔬PSYCHOLOGY:

Outline research by Jacobsen et al

A
  • Used ICD classification system on 100 Danish patients with a history of psychosis to test diagnosis reliability.
  • Found a 98% concordance rate suggesting that up to date classification systems are reliable.
30
Q

👨‍🔬PSYCHOLOGY:

Evaluation points for Reliability of Diagnosis of schizophrenia

A
  • DSM regarded more reliable than ICD as more accurate descriptions.
  • Schiz diagnosis (81%) anxiety (63%)
  • Even if not 100% reliable, classification systems provide a common language for further understanding and development of treatments.
  • Evidence suggests Reliability has improved over time (E.g. Söderberg)
31
Q

👨‍🔬PSYCHOLOGY:

What does validity mean in diagnosis?

A

-How accurate the diagnosis is

32
Q

👨‍🔬PSYCHOLOGY:

What 4 types of Validity affect diagnosis?

A
  • Reliability
  • Predictive Validity
  • Descriptive Validity
  • Aetiological Validity
33
Q

👨‍🔬PSYCHOLOGY:

How does Reliability affect validity of diagnosis?

A

-Reliability is the start of validity.

34
Q

👨‍🔬PSYCHOLOGY:

How does predictive validity affect diagnosis?

A

-If diagnosis leads to successful treatment, then diagnosis was valid.

35
Q

👨‍🔬PSYCHOLOGY:

How does Descriptive Validity affect Diagnosis?

A

-Patients of schizophrenia need to differ in symptoms from other mental disorders

36
Q

👨‍🔬PSYCHOLOGY:

How does Aetiological Validity affect diagnosis?

A

-All schizophrenics should have the same cause for the disorder.

37
Q

👨‍🔬PSYCHOLOGY:

Outline the procedure of research by Rosenhan

A
  • 8 volunteers went to mental hospitals claiming they could hear voices.
  • A hospital was informed that an unspecified number of pseudo participants would attempt entry of the next 3 months
38
Q

👨‍🔬PSYCHOLOGY:

Outline findings of research by Rosenhan

A
  • It took the 8 volunteers 7-53 days to be let out as their normal behaviour was interpreted as signs of schizophrenia.
  • 83/193 real schizophrenic patients raised suspicion of being pseudo participants.
39
Q

👨‍🔬PSYCHOLOGY:

Evaluation points of Rosenhan’s research

A
  • Psychiatrists are there to help people, not turn them away.
  • Expectation bias.
  • Nervousness of participants may have led psychiatrists to believe they were schizophrenic.
40
Q

👨‍🔬PSYCHOLOGY:

👨‍🔬PSYCHOLOGY:

Outline research by Birchwood and Jackson

A
