    Jun 24 2024
    DOI: 10.13056/acamh.31451

    In this Papers Podcast, Dr. Nicholas Fabiano discusses his JCPP Advances Methodological Review ‘How to optimize the systematic review process using AI tools’ (https://doi.org/10.1002/jcv2.12234). Nicholas is a co-first author of the paper, along with Arnav Gupta and Nishaant Bhambra.

    There is an overview of the paper, methodology, key findings, and implications for practice.

    Discussion points include:

    • Background into what a systematic review refers to.
    • What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)?
    • How AI is being used in the systematic review process.
    • How widely utilised AI is used in research and systematic reviews.
    • The advantages of utilising AI, as well as the risks and limitations.
    • What a balanced use of AI would look like.
    In this series, we speak to authors of papers published in one of ACAMH’s three journals. These are The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry (JCPP); The Child and Adolescent Mental Health (CAMH) journal; and JCPP Advances.

  • Chronotype and Depressive Symptoms in Adolescence
    Jun 17 2024
    DOI: 10.13056/acamh.30278

    In this Papers Podcast, Dimitris Tsomokos discusses his JCPP Advances paper ‘Chronotype and depression in adolescence: Results from a UK birth cohort study’ (https://doi.org/10.1002/jcv2.12245). Dimitris is the first author of the paper.

    There is an overview of the paper, methodology, key findings, and implications for practice.

    Discussion points include:

    • The bidirectional association between sleep duration and sleep quality and depressive symptoms in adolescence.
    • The reason behind using the Millennium Cohort Study (MCS), a large, population-based longitudinal birth cohort, in the study.
    • The cross-sectional association between chronotype and depressive symptoms and the differences between the sexes.
    • Can a ‘sleep catch-up mechanism’ mitigate risk for depression and are adolescence that are in tune with their circadian rhythms at less risk of depression?
    • The implications for policymakers and child and adolescent mental health professionals.
    • Gender differences and eveningness.
    In this series, we speak to authors of papers published in one of ACAMH’s three journals. These are The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry (JCPP); The Child and Adolescent Mental Health (CAMH) journal; and JCPP Advances.

  • The Hierarchy of Evidence: Single-Case Experimental Designs and CBT Interventions for Anxiety
    Jun 10 2024
    DOI: 10.13056/acamh.28984

    In this Papers Podcast, Dr. Tom Cawthorne and Professor Roz Shafran discuss their JCPP Advances paper ‘Do single-case experimental designs lead to randomised controlled trials of cognitive behavioural therapy interventions for adolescent anxiety and related disorders recommended in the National Institute of Clinical Excellence guidelines? A systematic review’ (https://doi.org/10.1002/jcv2.12181).

    There is an overview of the paper, methodology, key findings, and implications for practice.

    Discussion points include:

    • How the single-case experimental design (SCED) approach works and insight into the construct of the hierarchy of evidence.
    • How the review was conducted and why they focused on adolescent anxiety.
    • Adolescents as an under-researched population and the practical challenges around the SCED design.
    • The evidence that the SCED design can be a helpful approach and can provide high-quality research evidence.
    • The implications for researchers and research policymakers as well as CAMH professionals.
    • Could using SCEDs more effectively lead to future NICE guidelines better representing the adolescent population?
    • The recommendations that emerge from the paper.
    In this series, we speak to authors of papers published in one of ACAMH’s three journals. These are The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry (JCPP); The Child and Adolescent Mental Health (CAMH) journal; and JCPP Advances.
