This collection will be expanding over the next few months (as of June 2025). Do contact me if you hit problems or have questions.

YP-CORE apps

• App that gives you the appropriate CSC (and hence CSC classification) given one or two YP-CORE scores, age and gender. The app uses lookup tables for the CSC for the UK from the 2016 paper about the YP-CORE, from the UK and Ireland from Dr. Emily Blackshaw's excellent PhD research, and for Italy from the work by Rosalab Di Biase and others. See also my Rblog post: CSC by gender and age for more on this.

• App that allows you to upload up to two scores per participant, typically a baseline and a last session score. It gives you the appropriate CSC (and hence CSC classification) given one or two YP-CORE scores and the participant's age and gender usingthe same lookup tables for the correct CSC as for the previous app. It also provides:
  • the opportunity to enter some other facts about the therapies: start and finish dates, numbers of sessions attended, DNAed, cancelled and attended late
  • a table allowing you to explore your data by filtering and searching
  • tables of simple statistics from the data
  • the same statistics broken down by therapist ID if you have used that variable
  • tables of the CSC categories of the scores and the CSC change categories
  • a 'cat's cradle' plot that allows you to click on points to identify them
  This is work in progress and the tabs for those functions have simple explanations but also todo lists of what I will be adding to them and additional tabs of analyses to come.

Example data for use in the apps that analyse uploaded data

• for the one or two scores app above
• CSV format (.csv)
• Libre/OpenOffice format (.ods)
• Excel format (.xlsx)
• R data format (.Rda)
• for 'long format' data allowing any number of scores per participant (being designed at this point)

Apps touching on the YP-CORE

• Search interface to peer-reviewed papers relating to the CORE system This complements paper

General

As above: do please contact me if you hit problems with, or have questions about, any of these apps. I don't promise that I will be able to help and it may take me a week to reply but if you haven't heard in a week, try that form again.

Email update list

There is now an Email announcement list, never updating more than monthly, where I will put up developments of new apps here but also a summary of updates to the online glossary and new posts in the Rblog. You can sign up for the update list here to be alerted to new things.
