A new clinician-friendly questionnaire reliably gathered mental health data from over 1,900 children across diverse settings. This standardized approach is feasible for understanding child mental health needs in real-world clinical practice.

Area of Science:

  • Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
  • Clinical Psychology
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • Assessing child and family mental health needs in real-world clinical settings requires easily implementable data-gathering strategies.
  • Existing methods may not be suitable for diverse clinical environments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and pilot a clinician-friendly questionnaire for routine data collection in child mental health settings.
  • To evaluate the feasibility and utility of standardized data gathering for understanding child mental health needs.

Main Methods:

  • A questionnaire collecting demographic, psychosocial, medical, and family history data was developed.
  • Optical scanning technology was used to encode data from over 1,900 children across military, civilian psychiatric, pediatric, and community samples.

  • Data were collected from four military child psychiatry clinics, a civilian psychiatric state hospital, pediatric patients, and a community sample.

    • Main Results:

    • Clinical data were reliably obtained across multiple geographic and logistic settings.
    • Meaningful differences were identified across samples in presenting complaints and psychosocial/demographic variables.
    • The collected data demonstrated high accuracy and completeness despite challenges.

    Conclusions:

    • Standardized data-gathering approaches are important and feasible in routine clinical settings.
    • These tools offer opportunities and highlight potential hazards in research.
    • The questionnaire shows significant merit and warrants further implementation and testing.
