Possible assessment template option[edit]

Hello, I have created a potential assessment template that might be helpful in creating such pages. They are by no means perfect, but I would highly suggest using them to keep things streamlined. Please see the page here. Thanks for working on this page - it's a great start! Ongmianli (talk) 19:48, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Ongmianli: If you haven't already, you should solicit feedback on your template from the experts at Wikipedia:WikiProject Medicine and Wikipedia:WikiProject Psychology. Cheers, --Animalparty! (talk) 20:19, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Animalparty: Thanks for the prompt feedback! I am working on this currently, and I will get back to the experts at Wikipedia:WikiProject Medicine and Wikipedia:WikiProject Psychology about the page in about a week or so. I have read the WikiProjects' guidelines carefully, and I agree with it. Just need time to work on this. Much appreciated! Ongmianli (talk) 20:24, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, this is Rachael! Let do new comments at the very top and reply comments as directly underneath with a indent! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rkang101 (talk • contribs) 17:56, 28 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

“My mood is higher, more optimistic”, “I think faster”, “I need less sleep” or “I get into more quarrels” in ‘a period when you were in a “high” state’. The instrument also includes questions regarding the duration, the impact of family, social and work life, or people’s reactions such as “positive and negative”, “positive”, “no impact” or “negative”.

Adding a section with ways the checklist is being improved[edit]

Hi! I think it might be valid to add a section that provides readers with information of how they have been working to make the Hypomania Checklist "better" and more valid.

Forty et al. (2010) conducted a study to see if the checklist could be cut in half and still deliver similar results. Hypomania Checklist (HCL-32) was reduced to Hypomania Checklist (HCL-16) by picking and choosing the best possible questions to ask patients for the diagnosis. The structure was similar to HCL-32 because it included "active-elated" factors and "risk-taking/irritable" factors.The sensitivity and specificity of the "new" checklist was similar to that of HCL-32. In HCL-16 a score of 8 or higher was an excellent indicator of diagnosisin BD or MDD. The drawback of HCL-16 was it was taken after patients had tested with the HCL-32. Therefore, if this new checklist were to replace the old, it would be important to test the validity. Forty et al. (2010) may have come up with the checklist of the future!
