Background:

Consultation-liaison psychiatry research is crucial for establishing scientific validity and securing funding.
Existing research methodologies may not fully support the rigorous evaluation of consultation-liaison interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

To present a flexible research methodologic design model for consultation-liaison psychiatrists.
To facilitate the execution of carefully controlled studies on the effectiveness of consultation-liaison interventions.
To stimulate discussion and critical thinking regarding research in academic settings.

Main Methods:

The paper proposes a basic research design model adaptable to various study parameters.
The model allows for easy expansion or contraction based on project needs.
It emphasizes the inclusion of diverse effectiveness variables (psychiatric, medical, surgical, functional, cost).

Main Results:

The proposed model provides a structured yet flexible framework for designing rigorous research.
It can accommodate a wide range of variables relevant to consultation-liaison psychiatry.
The design is intended to be practical for researchers in academic and clinical settings.

Conclusions:

Implementing this research model can enhance the scientific basis of consultation-liaison psychiatry.
Such research is vital for demonstrating the proven effectiveness and ensuring future funding.
The model serves as a catalyst for increased research activity and critical evaluation in the field.
