Research summary
AI-generated

Caroline Balling studies how mental health conditions, especially personality disorders (like borderline and obsessive-compulsive personality disorder) and mood/anxiety disorders, can be classified and measured more accurately. Much of the work involves comparing and refining diagnostic systems (such as the DSM-5, HiTOP, and AMPD frameworks) and evaluating screening tools and treatment outcomes in clinical populations. This research is aimed at improving how clinicians assess and treat patients with complex or overlapping psychiatric symptoms.
