“…Telephone interviews have been shown to be a reliable and valid manner of gathering symptom severity data (Potts, Daniels, Burnam, & Wells, 1990;Simon, Revicki, & VonKorff, 1993). (Only a subsample of participants, all drawn from the Miami site, was contacted for follow-up due to limitations in staff availability.…”

A growing body of evidence suggests that people with bipolar disorder are highly goal-oriented. Compared to other persons, they expend more effort to attain rewards and view goal pursuit as more important to their self-worth. Persons at risk for mania and those diagnosed with bipolar spectrum disorders have been shown to endorse highly ambitious life goals, such as becoming a multimillionaire or achieving fame. This study is the first examination of whether such elevated goals characterize persons diagnosed with bipolar I disorder. We also examined whether elevated ambitions predicted symptom change over time. Ninety-two persons with bipolar I disorder and 81 age-and sex-matched controls completed the Willingly Approached Set of Statistically Unlikely Pursuits, a measure of extremely high life ambitions. A subset of the bipolar participants completed a 3-month follow-up interview. Participants with bipolar disorder endorsed higher ambitions for popular fame than did controls; moreover, heightened ambitions for popular fame and financial success predicted increases in manic symptoms in those with bipolar disorder over the next three months. Discussion focuses on goal regulation in bipolar disorder.

“…The BDI-II is a depression severity questionnaire consisting of 21 items, each rated 0-3 according to severity of difficulties experienced. Scores, with a possible range of 0-63, are summed; depression can then be interpreted as minimal (0-13), mild (14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19), moderate (20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28), or severe (≥29).…”

“…Each patient's clinical eligibility for the study was confirmed with a 40-to 60-minute baseline telephone assessment by an investigator (TG) and a chart review by a physician-investigator (BLR). In addition to the exclusion criteria described previously, the protocol also required that the patient: (1) have a 17-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HRS-D) 29 score !12; (2) report no alcohol or other substance abuse disorder within the past 2 months; (3) have no history of bipolar disorder; (4) have no active suicidal ideation; (5) be medically stable as determined from a medical record review and the baseline telephone assessment; (6) have no plans to leave the study practice within the next 6 months; and (7) not presently be receiving treatment for depression from a mental health professional.…”

“…These interviews assessed depression severity (HRS-D), 29 quality of life (SF-12), 31 history of past treatment for depression, comorbid anxiety disorder (PRIME-MD), 27 satisfaction with the PCP and the depression care received, as well as such sociodemographic information as age, race, gender, education, and employment status. Medical comorbidity was assessed at baseline through a review of each patient's EMR and paper chart (including non-University patient records, consult letters, etc.)…”
