Quantifying the Reliability and Replicability of Psychopathology Network Characteristics.
TL;DR: The present study compared the existing suite of methods for maximizing and quantifying the stability and consistency of PMRF networks with a set of metrics for directly comparing the detailed network characteristics interpreted in the literature and concluded that the limited reliability of the detailed characteristics of networks observed here is likely to be common in practice, but overlooked by current methods.

Eating disorder core symptoms and symptom pathways across developmental stages: A network analysis.

TL;DR: Several symptoms related to overeating, food avoidance, feeling full, and overvaluation of weight and shape emerged as central in most or all developmental stages, suggesting that some core symptoms remain central across development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Networks of major depressive disorder: A systematic review.
TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic review of depression network studies using PRISMA guidelines was conducted, where the most critical symptoms and their connections were determined and the most robust symptoms connections aggregated into a summary network.

TL;DR: The findings indicate that PEs are of less clinical relevance in LAMIC compared with HIC, and the universal use of current high-risk criteria might thus not be adequate without consideration of associated distress and cultural values.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toward incorporating genetic risk scores into symptom networks of psychosis
TL;DR: The current exploratory study provides a first application of the network framework to the field of behavior genetics research, which allows for a novel outlook on the investigation of the relations between genome-wide association study-based PRSs and symptoms of mental disorders, by focusing on the dependencies among variables.

Causality: models, reasoning, and inference
TL;DR: The art and science of cause and effect have been studied in the social sciences for a long time as mentioned in this paper, see, e.g., the theory of inferred causation, causal diagrams and the identification of causal effects.

Qgraph: Network visualizations of relationships in psychometric data
Sacha Epskamp,Angélique O. J. Cramer,Lourens J. Waldorp,Verena D. Schmittmann,Denny Borsboom +4 more
TL;DR: The qgraph package for R is presented, which provides an interface to visualize data through network modeling techniques, and is introduced by applying the package functions to data from the NEO-PI-R, a widely used personality questionnaire.
Journal ArticleDOI
Network Analysis: An Integrative Approach to the Structure of Psychopathology
TL;DR: An examines methodologies suited to identify such symptom networks and discusses network analysis techniques that may be used to extract clinically and scientifically useful information from such networks (e.g., which symptom is most central in a person's network).

TL;DR: The structure of psychopathology is examined, taking into account dimensionality, persistence, co-occurrence, and sequential comorbidity of mental disorders across 20 years, from adolescence to midlife, to explain why it is challenging to find causes, consequences, biomarkers, and treatments with specificity to individual mental disorders.
