Male and Female
Bipolar disorder/Depression
Patients who were invited to participate by the principal investigator or study coordinator among those who visited the Department of Neuropsychiatry and Psychosomatic Medicine at Saitama Medical University Hospital and its affiliated research institutions, and patients who voluntarily applied after seeing recruitment posters or similar materials.Patients meeting the diagnostic criteria for bipolar disorder and depression based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition: DSM-5-TR, developed by the American Psychiatric Association.Inpatient or outpatient care is not restricted.Diagnosis is made based on clinical diagnostic interviews and the MINI (Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview).Screening is conducted using clinical interviews and the MINI structured interview.Regardless of whether medication is administered.
Healthy people
Among those who voluntarily applied after seeing posters, etc., Individuals for whom no neurological or psychiatric disorders are identified through clinical interviews and MINI.
All subjects
Individuals with an IQ below 70 and equivalent educational background (e.g., graduation from a special needs school).Individuals with low cognitive functioning (Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) score < 18). Other cases where the research staff deems the subject unsuitable, such as when mental symptoms are highly unstable (e.g., repeated suicide attempts).
Healthy people
Individuals diagnosed with a mental disorder.Individuals with a first-degree relative who has a mental disorder.Individuals with a history of continuous oral administration of antipsychotic or antidepressant medications.

Significance of the Research
This study, conducted at the Department of Neuropsychiatry and Psychosomatic Medicine at Saitama Medical University Hospital (hereinafter referred to as our hospital), utilizes FAST to clarify the characteristics and differences in functional impairments specific to bipolar disorder, depression, and healthy individuals without psychiatric disorders. By clarifying the functional impairments associated with each disorder, this study may contribute to the evaluation of interventions aimed at rehabilitation and functional enhancement for psychiatric disorders. It is also expected to provide valuable data for pharmacological and psychosocial interventions targeting the functional abilities of psychiatric patients.
