From Theory to Application: Formal Computational Modeling in Clinical Psychology
Over the past decade, there has been burgeoning enthusiasm for formalizing theories of psychopathology as mathematical and computational models. This symposium addresses outstanding limitations needed to realize the potential of formal models, including leveraging empirical data for generating and testing formal theories and making formal modeling accessible to psychopathology researchers.
