A recent meta-analysis by Felix Butt from Stephan Köhler`s research group at Charité, Berlin, suggests that unguided digital interventions have effects both quality of life might and on depression (g = 0.29 / 0.37).

Many researchers as well as clinicians and their patients would argue that an evidence-based intervention should show effects both on symptoms and on functional outcomes to receive a strong recommendation for use.

It is well-established that unguided digital interventions are effective in reducing symptoms of depression. But what about the effect on quality of life?

She highlights that the advantages of the BPD-CL include the fact that it measures all symptom domains considered necessary for the diagnosis of BPD in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of the American Psychiatric Association (DSM).

That is the result of a study just published by Lynn Mayer in the International Journal of Methods in Psychiatric Research.

The Borderline Personality Disorder Checklist (BPD-CL) can be used for self-assessment in various languages because it is a reliable and valid measure of symptoms of BPD in its Dutch, English, German, Greek, Italian and Spanish version.

Quite possibly one of the best presentations on how to conduct research. It is by Peter WG Tennant from the University of Leeds, UK and focusses on modern causal inference methods.

Getting ready to teach internal/external/construct validity, for the first time using the framing by Estlinger, @davebrady72.bsky.social and @eschwitz.bsky.social (www.degruyterbrill.com/document/doi...).

Super happy because this is much clearer than what I told student before!
