简要总结
Anxiety and depression are highly prevalent and disabling conditions that frequently co-occur, and are costly to the individual and society. Despite important advances in our understanding of these disorders, there is a significant unmet need to identify reliable and clinically useful tests that can predict prognosis, inform treatment choice for a given individual, and improve treatment outcomes. The aim of this project is to fill this critical gap by validating a battery of measures including brain imaging, psychophysiology, behavior, and self-report that will reliably assess positive and negative affect, or valence, system functioning in a broad sample of individuals screened for anxiety and depression as part of their routine primary care visits.
详细描述
Participants presenting to the UCSD and UCLA primary care clinics will be screened as part of their routine visit using the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7 (GAD-7). Participants who call in will be asked to provide verbal informed consent for phone screening and the IRB approved Screening Questionnaire and the Overall Anxiety Severity and Impairment Scale (OASIS) will be administered.
Participants who remain eligible after the phone screening will be asked to return for a Clinical Interview, Behavioral Session, Biomarker blood draw, (and optional genetics), and Neuroimaging Session.
All participants will be contacted approximately 3-months later and invited to complete the same battery of self-report measures completed during the baseline session (described below). The self-report measures will be administered through a secure on-line survey database. This data will allow investigators to (1) confirm that participants continue to meet initial eligibility criteria and are therefore eligible for the full re-test battery and (2) use baseline measures of positive and negative valence domains to predict changes in symptoms and functioning.
A subset of 50 participants (n=25 from each UCSD and UCLA) will be randomly selected to return approximately three months later to complete the same battery of assessments in the Behavioral and Neuroimaging Sessions to establish test-retest reliability of the latent constructs.
