Individuals who meet diagnostic criteria for a specific disorder often exhibit the symptoms of (or meet diagnostic criteria for) other psychiatric disorders, which is often referred to as co-morbidity or symptom co-occurrance. Using Checkmate Plus Symptom Inventories, scores of studies have shown this is also the case for Tourette syndrome or chronic multiple tic disorder (e.g., Gadow, & DeVincent, 2005; Gadow, DeVincent, & Schneider, 2009; Gadow, Nolan, Sprafkin, et al., 2002; Schneider, Gadow, Crowell, et al., 2009). Abstracts of most of these studies can be accessed by clicking the link to Research Bibliography. Because individuals with Tourette syndrome or chronic multiple tic disorder typically exhibit the symptoms of other psychiatric disorders, assessment batteries that evaluate a range of disorders are optimal in clinical management.
