Refining clinical judgment of treatment response and symptom remission identification in childhood anxiety using a signal detection analysis on the pediatric anxiety rating scale.
The purpose of this study was to determine guidelines for delineating treatment response and symptom remission for children with anxiety disorder based on the five item Pediatric Anxiety Rating Scale (PARS5), and replicate guidelines using the six item PARS (PARS6). Optimal prediction of treatment response based on gold standard criteria was achieved at 15-20 percent reduction in symptoms on the PARS5 (with 20 percent reduction achieving marginally higher accuracy), and 20 percent reduction on the PARS6.
