Diagnostic Performance and Utility of the Hwabyung Comprehensive Test in Differential Clinical Assessment
The HCT demonstrated good diagnostic accuracy for identifying Hwabyung and fair performance in differentiating it from psychiatric disorders. These findings support a stepwise clinical application in which HCT-total is used for initial screening and HCT-P is a supplementary measure for supporting differential diagnostic decision-making.
