This is such a good video - actual definitions and talked through examples!! Doesn't get any better than that! Thank you so much!!

I had difficulties understanding MSE ,but with these great videos and explanation,I learnt a lot and I really liked the examples.It was really helpful.Thank you.

I am a student nurse who used to have phobia when it comes to writing MSE but I am now beginning to build confidence. Thanks very much sir

This is an excellent presentation. Thank you Thom.

I'm in a counseling psychology program and many thanks to you for this sir.

This video is most helpful. I appreciate the overview, thorough explanations, practice examples, and review. Great teaching style!

Just here to gather information on how to understand what my teenage son, who quite clearly has flat affect, is experiencing. The monotone voice, lack of emotional expression, and the inability to fully understand the emotional state of others. I’ve personally been diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder myself and both my mother and grandmother had schizophrenia as well, so I am particularly concerned about trying to get him the help he needs now but so far he’s been resistant. Thank you for the helpful information.

About 24:56, She is showing facial expression (frowning, mouth corner drooping) pretty clearly too, so I don't understand how she could be classified as blunted/flat? I thought only the absence or near absence of expression could be cited as blunted/flat under affect coding?

Thank you for this, Dr. Field! Incredibly helpful and enlightening.

Hi Ty! Yes, depressed mood can be related to a full/broad affect. Be aware. though, that often depressed mood is associated with a blunted/flat affect. Hope that helps, Thom

Your videos are really helpful for me to understand and like psychiatry even more,thank you very much ! Keep uploading more videos like this

Thank you for this step-by-step simple explanatory guide, it gave me a deeper understanding on how to approach an MSE

hard to find good training sessions for mental status exams...this one is good!

Thank you for this video. I was recently accessed and diagnosed with depression, anxiety and ASD. The report mentioned my affect as "somewhat flat or generally restricted". I had no idea what that meant or that I was like that.

I feel I've become so "lazy" with my descriptions during my social work assessments being so incredibly busy with crisis stabilization inpatient level of care. I want to improve. This helps so very much. Thank you!

Woow A lot of help for my practical psychiatry exam! Great video recommend for all who prepare for exams in practical psychiatry assessment! Thanks a lot!🤩

The Incongruent Affect at 7:40 almost felt like an extreme sarcasm and contempt for the horrors of reality. Kind of unsettling.

Thank you so much for these videos. I watched lots of videos to learn MSE,but still didn't fully understand until watched this video.

who else is here bc they need help for their assessment? :')

Thought of punching boss you dislike + smile = congruent affect.

Great video for personality assessment training.

very clear explanation.

thanks this is super helpful and better than the textbooks!

God bless you I needed this so much.

u save my life...thanx💖from iraq

This was very helpful. Thank you!

I learned alot from your videos. Thank you.

Excellent video. Thank you. Just the volume is very low

I too am labile when purchasing a couch.

can depression have full broad affect in congruence ? i felt at 24:27 is ample enough to be said full / broad and it seems to be congruent with depressed mood .. but sir u said otherwise .. will u please explain.. ty

I am here, because once they told me at the hospital I had an incongruent affect, and I want to become an actress. And it makes me so sad and scared and angry.

Who else's is here because the teacher recommended and the video is your assignment.😂

These videos are so helpful

This is excellent. Thank you so much. 😊👌👌

Great stuff thanks Thom!

Thank you for posting these great videos I’ve learnt so much from them. I was wondering when you report mood and affect can you say ‘Mood was reported as euthymic. Affect was expression of sadness in full range incongruent’?

Awesome video!

Thank you so much!

Thank you. Very helpful

Could you increase the volume? Both the youtube and my computer are maxed and this is still very low volume.

Thank you!

this is great!! thanks!

Thanks

hello! what a really good video but could you please linking the literature so we can read it. I think it would be better :) thanks!

God bless you

AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Very helpful but the volume is very low,thanks❤️

Hi, could I ask what's the difference between dysthymic, & dysphoric?? Thanks

Is there a workbook that we can purchase?

Thank u

blunt/flat affect honestly just looks like RBF. ( cause it looks like me whenever i talk to people that i am not that close with ).

How to identify mood if patient does not respond? How to put mood in MSE if patient does not talk?

How do I get the handouts for these videos?

May I download your MSE videos and use freely?

Are there any printouts attached to this and part 2 presentation?

Volume is really low

Volume is very low. Too much so. Pity it was not corrected in all these years

volume please wtf this is almost silence

PLEASE turn up the volume in these videos and in your narration! Too soft.

nice microphone

Will this video be captioned?

Where are the handouts/worksheets?

why is the audio such crap and muddled

We're you hungry?

HAHA,...NICE VEDIOS...BUT DO U HAVE ONLY PPL WITH FACIAL PALSY? .....

This is complete rubbish. How dare you people judge what others are supposed to feel about such things as losing their job or experiencing pressure at work? How dare you decide how they have to express their supposed emotions during conversation? Maybe I am quite cool about losing my job because I didn't like it in the first place. Maybe I am cool, because I don't want a bloody psychiatrist to prey on my emotions. Or maybe I am actually consumed by a towering rage, but I am also a very skilled diplomat and know how to hide my feelings. But people like you would lock me up as a psychopath. Or maybe I do feel the pressure at work, but I am also blessed with a good sense of humour and warm self-irony that help me distance myself from what's happening and give me a certain degree of inner freedom. But people like you wouldn't be able to recognize it, let alone comprehend it, and would put me on suicide-watch.

Thank you!
