Values for reliable change and clinically significant change for the Leeds Dependence Questionnaire and Social Satisfaction Questionnaire are determined and add to the evidence for the performance of the LDQ, CORE-10 and SSQ as dimension measures of addiction.Abstract:
Aims and method To determine values for reliable change and clinically significant change for the Leeds Dependence Questionnaire (LDQ) and Social Satisfaction Questionnaire (SSQ). The performance of these two measures with the Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation (CORE-10) as three dimension measures of addiction was then explored. Results The reliable change statistic for both LDQ and SSQ was ⩾4; the cut-offs for clinically significant change were LDQ ⩽10 males, ⩽5 females, and SSQ ⩾16. There was no overlap of 95% CIs for means by gender between 'well-functioning' and pre- and post-treatment populations. Clinical implications These data enable the measurement of clinically significant change using the LDQ and SSQ and add to the evidence for the performance of the LDQ, CORE-10 and SSQ as dimension measures of addiction. The CORE-10 and SSQ can be used as treatment outcome measures for mental health problems other than addiction.read more

A brief Addiction Recovery Questionnaire derived from the views of service users and concerned others
TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify support across five stakeholder groups for 20 recovery indicators previously generated from focus groups of service users and concerned others and create a brief recovery questionnaire, which are rated by stakeholders for their overall importance and the three most important ranked.

Course and outcome of patients with alcohol use disorders following an alcohol intervention during hospital attendance: mixed method study.
TL;DR: Patients with AUD have high levels of morbidity and mortality, yet many made substantial changes following intervention in hospital for their alcohol use, and Prospective trials need to identify the effect of alcohol care teams in optimising this ‘teachable moment’ for patients.

Patient-reported factors associated with degree of pain medication dependence and presence of severe dependence among spinal outpatients.
TL;DR: In this article, the Leeds Dependence Questionnaire (LDQ) was used to identify risk factors for pain medication dependence, including pain intensity, borrowing pain medication, and emergency phone calls or clinic visits.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors defined clinically significant change as the extent to which therapy moves someone outside the range of the dysfunctional population or within the ranges of the functional population, and proposed a reliable change index (RC) to determine whether the magnitude of change for a given client is statistically reliable.

TL;DR: This article summarizes and scrutinizes the growth of the development of clinically relevant and psychometrically sound approaches for determining the clinical significance of treatment effects in mental health research by tracing its evolution, by examining modifications in the method, and by discussing representative applications.
