Many of the pages of this website include information about specific mental health problems and related statistical information (e.g. the lifetime prevalence of a particular problem and how well it responds to psychological treatment). To this end, amongst the text you may come across superscript numbers like this 1 which denotes where the statistical information we cite came from. While most casual readers may not be interested in this, we acknowledge that there will be some of you who would like to know where these numbers are coming from, and by association, that our approach to treatment is based on research evidence and best practice.
