Title: | Evidence-Based Psychiatry | Contributor(s): | Hobbs, Megan (author) | Publication Date: | 2015 | Early Online Version: | 2015-03-12 | DOI: | 10.1016/B978-0-08-097086-8.27025-6 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/28805 | Abstract: | Efficacious, effective, and efficient psychiatric treatments are needed to reduce the burden of mental disorders. Evidence-based psychiatry is the process that facilitates the translation of research from the bench to the bedside. The ‘evidence’ in evidence-based psychiatry is graded according to a hierarchy. Randomized controlled trial(s) are considered to be at the apex of this hierarchy. Most randomized controlled trials use categorical disorders as their primary outcome variable but categorical disorders have limited validity. Pragmatic approaches to improving the ‘evidence’ in evidence-based psychiatry by accounting for the nature of mental disorders are, therefore, needed and are described herein. | Publication Type: | Entry In Reference Work | Source of Publication: | International Encyclopedia of the Social & Behavioral Sciences, v.8, p. 339-343 | Publisher: | Elsevier Ltd | Place of Publication: | Amsterdam, Netherlands | ISBN: | 9780080970868 0080970869 9780080970875 0080970877 |
