A Study of the Relationship of Psychosocial Function With Mood Symptoms in Offspring of Parents With Bipolar Disorder
The primary purpose of this study is to compare, over 24 months, the time spent with clinically significant mood symptoms (ie, mania, depression), as measured by the Longitudinal Interval Follow-Up Evaluation (LIFE) and the Psychiatric Status Rating Scale (PSR), in offspring of bipolar parents with and without at least mild impairment in psychosocial functioning.

Inclusion Criteria:
- Participants must have at least one parent who meets the criteria for diagnosis of
Bipolar I disorder (BD-I) or Bipolar II disorder (BD-II), as confirmed by the Mini
