Harmonizing Mental Health Assessment: Breaking Down Formal Thought Disorder into Manageable Subconstructs

Despite being a common and cross-diagnosed symptom dimension across mental disorders, formal thought disorder (FTD) remains plagued by inconsistent terminology and conceptual standardization. Clinicians use a mix of FTD-specific scales and items from generic scales, which can lead to misunderstandings and misclassifications. Researchers have now developed a novel method using
