My PICO question asked: In psychiatric patients receiving mental health treatment (P), does the use of the DSM-5-TR Cultural Formulation Interview (CFI) during psychiatric assessment (I), compared to standard psychiatric assessment without a structured cultural assessment tool (C), improve patient engagement, treatment adherence, diagnostic accuracy, and mental health outcomes (O)?
(i will record the presentation myself once the poster is complete)
Submission Instructions: for the photo it can be small , i have to do a video recording which will be in a corner somehwere.
To complete this assignment, address the following criteria:
- Posters should include the following content:
- A Project title. This should be placed towards the top of the poster, including the names of the authors and university affiliation.
- An Introduction section. This should highlight the problem addressed in a brief literature review with citations and your hypothesis or hypotheses.
- The Purpose section: The poster states the objectives of this inquiry relative to the overall evidence-based literature review on this topic.
- The Methods/Search Strategy section. An overview of how you studied your primary source(s): Describe the evidence-based solution. How was it developed? Include the theoretical framework (if applicable). Identify databases searched and inclusion/exclusion criteria. A literature flow diagram must be uploaded to this assignment.
- The Results The poster describes the search, the number of studies included, and the level of evidence.
- The Synthesis of Evidence The poster briefly describes the synthesis of the evidence including major trends and notable gaps.
- The Implications for Practice section. The poster includes recommendations for practice, education, or future research based on the review and synthesis of the evidence.
- A References section. Make sure your references include at least seven references with four primary research articles. Primary articles describe studies in which the authors collected the data themselves. References must be in the current APA format. If you cannot fit seven or more references into your poster, you should provide the references separately as an attached Word document. For assistance with the current APA formatting, please contact BrainFuse Online Tutoring link in Canvas or visit the STU library at https://www.stu.edu/library
