Objective: The objective of this study is to determine if pattern-based formulation (PBF) can accurately contribute to case formulation. Conclusions: The application of three PBFs accurately contributed to the development of this patient’s case formulation. The case formulation demonstrated here, and the patterns introduced in this paper, will serve as educational materials for teaching psychiatric case formulation.

Objectives: To teach psychiatric case formulation; to build a repertoire of patterns that can be reused as building blocks in constructing case formulations. Method: Pattern-based Formulation. Results: Demonstration of a case formulation and introducing three patterns. Conclusion: The demonstration will assist learning case formulation using the Pattern-based Formulation, while the three patterns introduced can be reused when formulating relevant cases.

Psychiatric Case

Objective: To demonstrate how the Pattern-based Formulation can be used to integrate biological, psychological and sociocultural factors in constructing the case formulation in a patient who developed schizophrenia and post-psychotic depression. Conclusions: Three new patterns are introduced and used to construct a comprehensive case formulation. This expands the suite of patterns in the pattern-based method of psychiatric case formulation, and further demonstrates its broad utility as an educational resource in psychiatry training.

Summary: We review the rationale for behavioral clinical case formulations and emphasize the role of the functional analysis in the design of individualized treatments. Standardized treatments may not be optimally effective for clients who have multiple behavior problems. These problems can affect each other in complex ways and each behavior problem can be influenced by multiple, interacting causal variables. The mechanisms of action of standardized treatments may not always address the most important causal variables for a client's behavior problems. The functional analysis integrates judgments about the client's behavior problems, important causal variables, and functional relations among variables. The functional analysis aids treatment decisions by helping the clinician estimate the relative magnitude of effect of each causal variable on the client's behavior problems, so that the most effective treatments can be selected. The parameters of, and issues associated with, a functional analysis and Functional Analytic Clinical Case Models (FACCM) are illustrated with a clinical case. The task of selecting the best treatment for a client is complicated because treatments differ in their level of specificity and have unequally weighted mechanisms of action. Further, a treatment's mechanism of action is often unknown.

What are the personal and clinical implications of preserved memory for music in dementia? In light of this question, a framework is proposed for integrating basic and clinical research findings and for case formulation and theory building in music-based interventions. Elaborating on the Comprehensive Process Model of Engagement, a proposal is made for music engagement as an inclusive concept that encompasses the variety of ways in which individuals involve themselves with musical stimuli. It is argued that instances of music engagement arise through the combined influence of person, stimulus, and environment attributes. Preserved memory for melodies is discussed as an attribute of the person with particular relevance to music engagement. This approach orients naturally toward considering individual differences and, as such, lends itself well to case-based research and clinical case formulation.
