  • The classical vulnerability-stress model and conceptually similar approaches such as the 'allostatic load', 'double-hit' or 'three-hit' hypotheses predominantly focus on risk-increasing factors that, assuming a cumulative effect, will lead to manifestation of disease.

    “The classical vulnerabilitystress model of mental disorders, arguably one of the most influential models of disorder development, as well as conceptually similar approaches such as the”
  • These findings support a two-hit model in which early life stress confers vulnerability to psychiatric symptoms, but symptom onset occurs only after a subsequent stressor.

    “These studies support a “two hit” model in which ELS, such as maternal separation, confers vulnerability to symptoms of psychiatric illness, but with symptom onset only occurring after exposure to a subsequent stressor (Bayer et al., 1999; Maynard et al., 2001).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
