Building toward a standard model for perinatal mental healthcare
Establishing a robust standard model of perinatal mental healthcare is essential for addressing population-level mental health challenges. Furthermore, collaboration and governance structures for shared resources-akin to Elinor Ostrom's principles of common-pool resource management-are essential for sustainability. Scientific advances in systems modeling, teamwork, and knowledge-sharing frameworks will be critical to developing an effective, wide…
The influence of loss to follow‐up in autism screening research
BACKGROUND: How best to improve the early detection of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is the subject of significant controversy. Some argue that universal ASD screeners are highly accurate, whereas others argue that evidence for this claim is insufficient. Relatedly, there is no clear consensus as to the optimal role of screening for making referral decisions for evaluation and treatment. Published screening research can meaningfully inform these…
Child social-emotional and behavioral problems and competencies contribute to changes in developmental functioning during Early Intervention
The debate over rational decision making in evidence-based medicine
Many of the resources developed to promote the use of evidence in policy aspire to an ideal of rational decision making, yet their basis in the decision sciences is often unclear. Tracing the historical development of evidence-informed policy to its roots in evidence-based medicine (EBM), we distinguish between two understandings of how research evidence may be applied. Advocates for EBM all seek to use research evidence to optimise clinical care…
Stakeholders’ Perspectives on Stakeholder-engaged Research (SER)
BACKGROUND: US federal funding agencies increasingly incentivize stakeholder-engaged research which represents a paradigm shift toward incorporating a range of stakeholders in research design, conduct, and dissemination. OBJECTIVES: We use qualitative methods to capture experience-based recommendations on how to operationalize 4 Patient-Centered Outcomes Research (PCOR) principles in stakeholder-engaged research, specifically: (1) reciprocal rela…
An Abbreviated Screening Instrument for Autism Spectrum Disorders
The reliability and validity of the Parent's Observations of Social Interactions (POSI), a new, seven‐item screening instrument for autism spectrum disorders (ASD), is examined in two substudies. In Study 1, parents of 217 children (18–48 months) evaluated at a developmental clinic completed intake questionnaires that included the POSI and the Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers (M‐CHAT) checklist. POSI and M‐CHAT scores were compared to cl…
