Discuss a variety of psychiatric assessment tools that have been utilized for patients with varying mental health disorders.

The Assignment b(Sources within 5 years)
Respond to your colleagues by comparing your assessment tool to theirs.(My assessment tool is the Michigan Alcohol Screening Test)

Colleagues Post
This week we have been tasked to thoroughly examine and discuss a variety of psychiatric assessment tools that have been utilized for patients with varying mental health disorders. This week I have been assigned to examine the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), second revision. According to Wheeler (2014), assessment tools in the mental health setting are incredibly important not only for the practitioner but the patient as well, as these tools can be used to establish rapport between client and provider, provide reassurance for the patient and identify a patient in distress and ensure their follow-up.

The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) was created by a neuropsychiatry expert Aaron Beck and colleagues in 1972 as screening tool for patients that measures symptom severity of depression and can be self-administered and scored (Stark, 2019). In nearly every article identified for this research, this tool was described as one of the most widely used instruments used for depression severity. According to Georgi et al (2019), the authors of the scale stated the purpose of the scale is to measure intensity of depression, not differentiate between mental disorders. While this tool has been around for many years and has gained significant favor in the psychologic community, Yin et al (2000) performed a meta-analysis to verify reliability and discovered that only seven and a half percent of articles pertaining to the BDI demonstrated consistent reliability. Yin et al (2000) further explained that for patients with substance use disorders, the BDI reliability was even worse. Additionally, Georgi et al (2019) reported significant differences when the BDI was conducted in interview format versus self-reported and scored. However, newer studies have been completed showing reliability and validity of the BDI in other settings and situations. The BDI with two-factor somatic-affective and cognitive model demonstrated reliability and validity when administered in hospital setting for families of chronically ill children (Toledano-Toledano & Contreras-Valdez, 2018). Additionally, Toledano-Toledano and Contreras-Valdez (2018) explain that the BDI was less complicated than other depression severity measurement tools, making the BDI preferential among other tools. The BDI also has advantages over other screening and measurement tools because of its ease of use, inexpensive nature, and can be used to track symptom severity over time and gauge response to treatment modalities (Dalley et al, 2019). Clinicians can be confident that this tool is reliable but should use more than one tool if necessary, to ensure patient safety.

Instructions
• Write a five-to-seven (5-7) page paper on a negotiation or conflict resolution theory or concept chosen by you. Ensure that the document is double spaced and prepared following the AMA (American Medical Association) style guide. It should be polished and professional in appearance as well as in content. Use a minimum of five (5) academic journal sources or books. Wikipedia does not count as a source. Spellcheck and proofread your document before submitting it to your professor during Week 6.
• The assignment must have a cover sheet which will count as the first page of the 5-7-page assignment. The cover sheet must be written in a business letter format (single-spaced block form, using the given link as a guide: https://writing.wisc.edu/Handbook/BusinessLetter.html), and addressed to: Jack Smith, Director of Human Resources, Cowtown Corporation, 1000 Hudson Street, Fort Worth, Texas 76105.
Scenario:
Mr. Jack Smith and his staff are entering into difficult negotiations with the local union and need some ideas on strategies to use and pitfalls to avoid. At the same time, Mr. Smith and his staff have been involved in several employee conflicts originating from the organization’s departments. He could use some advice to train departments about correct procedures when dealing with employee conflict in the workplace. The one page (1-page maximum) business formatted cover sheet should be written to Mr. Smith highlighting your findings either on negotiation or conflict resolution and to offer your assistance as you are quickly becoming a resource for the company on negotiations and conflict resolution.
Please note that to receive full credit for this assignment, it is expected that you will report your findings on your chosen topic by offering research and discussion that explores both sides of the issue(s). For instance, in the topic “dealing with liars”, the literature will offer suggested ways to detect someone who is lying such eye movement or the presence of certain body language. Other articles suggest that you not rely on any specific sign or action by an individual to decide if one is lying but rather you should work to minimize the ability of the other party to lie by following certain strategies to discourage lying altogether. Managers that receive reports that include discussion of both sides of the issue are better served with a balanced view of the issues presented in your recommendations.
