Study objectives and methods

The objective of this study is to estimate three EDIT-B signatures in term of their external validity. For this purpose, performance of the test will be estimated by calculating for each signature its sensitivity, specificity and its accuracy to predict the diagnosis of bipolar disorder. Area under the ROC curve of each signature will be calculated. Additionally, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, positive likelihood ratio, negative likelihood ratio and odds ratio will be calculated
