Q

3 types of connectivity

A
  1. Structural or anatomical: how structures are connected via white matter
  2. Functional connectivity: between brain regions based on correlations between their BOLD signal
  3. Effective connectivity: combines both types, shows BOLD and also direction and timing

Q

Testing 5 steps

A
  1. Converting theory into hypothesis
  2. Selecting appropriate tools
  3. Making predictions
  4. Applying instruments
  5. Elaborating and explaining results
17
Q

5 basic questions in clinical psychodiagnostics

A
  1. Recognition: what are problems
  2. Explanation: why do the problems exist
  3. Prediction: how will client develop in the future
  4. Indication: how can problem be solved
  5. Evaluation: have problems been solved
18
Q

Synchronous and diachronous

A

Synchronous: at the same time as the behavior
Diachronous: prior to the behavior

19
Q

Diagnostic cycle

A
  1. Observation
  2. Induction
  3. Deduction
  4. Testing
  5. Evaluating
20
Q

Application

A

Information about the referrer and type of request. Clients mindset is observed. Information form other sources is gathered

21
Q

Hypothesis formulation

A

Based on recognition and explanation. Predictions must be concrete and verifiable

22
Q

Selection of examination tools

A

Suitable instruments are selected based on recognition and explanation

23
Q

Administration and scoring

A

Results first analyzed independently, then in relation to hypotheses

24
Q

Argumentation

A

Quality of tools are evaluated. Hypotheses are accepted or rejected. Diagnostician concludes outcome

25
Q

Report

A

Conclusion of report must be well defined. Language must be transparent and not too much technical jargon

26
Q

Diagnosis and Treatment Combinations

A

Allows treatment to be efficient and cost-effective. Once a patient has been efficiently diagnosed, the protocol-based treatment
that then takes place is preferably evidence-based and clearly fits the diagnosis that has been made.

27
Q

Problems with DTC

A
  1. Sometimes clients have more than one problem/complaint
  2. Sometimes there are no clearly defined problems
  3. Departments might overlook other more serious complaints due to strong focus on reported complaint
  4. Research on interaction between specific diagnosis and treatment is scarce
  5. Often insufficient time to carry out a
    comprehensive diagnostic examination of the causes of the complaint(s)/
    problem(s)
28
Q

Recognition components

A
  1. Inventory and description
  2. Organization and categorization in dysfunctional behavior clusters or disorders
  3. Examination of seriousness
29
Q

Explanation components

A
  1. The locus: the person or situation
  2. Nature of control: about the cause
  3. Synchronous and Diachronous explanations
  4. Induced and persistent conditions
30
Q

Indication components

A
  1. Knowledge of treatment and therapists
  2. Knowledge of relative usefulness of treatments
  3. Knowledge of clients acceptance of indication
31
Q

Heuristics clinical judgement

A
  1. Clinicians using clinical judgment evaluate only about 50% of the key criteria of structured interviews
  2. Symptoms that had been described as forming part of a causal relation are weighed more heavily as criteria
  3. Clinicians using clinical judgement often make diagnoses by comparing clients to ‘prototypes’
32
Q

Biases in PA

A
  1. Stereotyping
  2. Availability
  3. Premature closure
  4. Illusory correlation
  5. Confirmation
  6. Excessive data collection
  7. Self-report
