This is important since it helps the general audience understand the step-by-step measures taken during the study. In the process, it is essential to refer to empirical studies to justify the claims stated in the popular media. For instance, it would have been ideal for the author in the popular media to refer to Crockett et al.’s (2008) article to enhance the credibility of the information provided.

concern in practice, especially as major depressive disorder (MDD). Misdiagnosis leads to erroneous clinical intervention, worsening patients’ conditions. Inappropriate treatment leads to rapid shifts between low and high moods and increased episodes of mania. Erroneous clinical intervention adversely affects patients, impacting their relationships, physical health, and finances as they incur more medical costs (Carvalho et al., 2020).

Findings from mental health research have informed the development of effective and low-cost interventions for a broad range of mental disorders, including BD (Lacasse, 2014). These findings have informed the development of various pharmacological and pharmacotherapeutic interventions available for individuals suffering from BD. These interventions have been vital in helping individuals manage and reduce symptoms and improve their quality of life (Lacasse, 2014). Nevertheless, research into mental health concerns such as BD must be promoted to find better intervention and diagnosis strategies and respond to evolving mental health needs.
