Abstract

Clinical prediction models use individual-level patient data to inform clinical decisions across medicine. However, few are currently used in psychiatry. Here, we examine the opportunities and challenges presented by the new generation of clinical prediction models in psychiatry and consider what it would mean for a model to be 'good enough' for clinical use.
