Field trials of the HiTOP Digital Assessment Tracker are currently underway. The HiTOP-DAT is a battery of established self-report measures covering most symptom components and traits in the HiTOP model. The goal of this project is to evaluate the utility of HiTOP for clinical applications including case conceptualization, treatment selection, and communication with patients and providers. Testing clinical utility in real-world settings is a critical step in HiTOP’s development that has been made possible with the generous participation of clinics across the United States.
HiTOP-DAT provides comprehensive coverage of psychopathology in a maximally brief format, it’s free to use, and straightforward to administer. Clients simply receive a link to the survey, which is already programmed in Qualtrics or REDCap, then a table of normed results is automatically emailed to the clinician.
