Description

Record a psychiatric report's participant and reporter, and compare their identifiers.

Mental-health records preserve instrument versions, recall wording, reporter roles, unknown responses and a person's own priorities. A missing code differs from a symptom rating, and a normalized preference is a scale position rather than a clinical urgency score. Recording these values does not assess mental state, diagnose a condition or choose care.

Record a psychiatric report's participant and reporter, and compare their identifiers.

When to use this tool

Use Psychiatry Record Proxy Reporter when you already have participantId, reporterId, reporterRole and need to record a psychiatric report's participant and reporter, and compare their identifiers.

How to use the tool and how it works

  1. Enter participantId, reporterId, reporterRole. Use the units and conventions below.
  2. Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
  3. Read token, sameIdentifier. Inspect sameIdentifier before interpreting the associated values.

Require nonempty participantId/reporterId/reporterRole; return their JSON text triple and literal ID equality as sameIdentifier.1

{
  "input": {
    "participantId": "P17",
    "reporterId": "R2",
    "reporterRole": "caregiver"
  },
  "output": {
    "token": "[\"P17\",\"R2\",\"caregiver\"]",
    "sameIdentifier": false
  }
}

Limitations and assumptions

  • Equal or different identifiers do not establish personal identity, reporter authority, consent or reliability.
  • Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Consult the original instrument, language/version and reporter context for any substantive assessment. Preserve missing responses and user-selected goals explicitly; use the instrument's complete scoring process rather than treating one label or normalized preference as a clinical score.
