V.1. Thesis - Evaluation of Bayesian belief networks for diagnosis of psychotic disorders -- v.2. Professional portfolio - Context and comorbidity : implications for cognitive-behavioural treatment of depression |
Summary |
The thesis examined the inter-rater reliability and procedural validity of four computerised Bayesian belief networks (BBNs) which were developed to assist with the diagnosis of psychotic disorders. The results of this research indicated that BBNs can significantly improve diagnostic reliability and may represent an important advance over current diagnostic methods. The professional portfolio investigated, through the presentation of case studies and review of literature relevant to each case study, how comorbidity and context of depression may impact on cognitive behavioural therapy treatment |
