Consensus on Subdomains and Measures of Relevance to Affective and Social Cognition Research on Bipolar Disorder ( <scp>CAS</scp> ‐ <scp>BD</scp> ); Outcomes and Recommendations From an International Society for Bipolar Disorders Targeting Cognition
Expert consensus on subdomains and measures of affective and social cognition for research on BD was obtained via a staged approach. Prior familiarity may have influenced some experts' rankings, but generally there was a notable lack of consistency in the use of available measures by BD experts. This reaffirms the need for more specific guidance and validated batteries of social and affective cognition to direct the field and allow for more consistency and replication of research in the future.
