• Predicting type of psychiatric disorder from Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) scores in child mental health clinics in London and Dhaka (2000, result): “A subsequent study comparing SDQ predictions with independent psychiatric diagnoses in a large community study has indeed shown that the algorithm is not as successful at predicting specific groups of disorders in the community ( 5 ).”
• The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) (2003, background): “Moreover, the SDQ discriminates well between children with and without psychopathological symptoms [11, 14, 20,24] and there is evidence to indicate that it can be employed as an effective screen for child psychiatric disorders in community samples [12, 13].”
