Study Overview

Brief Summary

The study examines actigraphic, observational, psychometric and associated repeated measurements obtained prior to and during psychopharmacological treatment.

Detailed Description

Baseline actigraphic measurements, multi-symptom operationally defined observations and psychometric data will be established and repeated to measure treatment response. Additional biological and biometric measures that have potential to further characterize the cohorts under study or treatment response will be collected as practical and when possible.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Actigraphic Measurement

Time Frame: Three week actigraphic measurement periods

Actigraphic measurements are recorded every 30 seconds during three week measurement periods. The actigraphic measurements will be made utilizing an Actiwatch (AW-64 Phillips-Rispironics, Inc.), placed on the subject's non-dominant wrist. The measurements will occur every thirty seconds for approximately 21 consecutive days. Actigraphic measurements collected at this frequency reflect circadian patterns of interest; discern sleep states and characterize activity and activity patterns.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Operationally Defined Observations(Randomly repeated treatment course observational measurements during actigraphic measurement periods)
