class camcops_server.tasks.kirby_mcq.Kirby(**kwargs)[source]

Server implementation of the Kirby Monetary Choice Questionnaire task.

__init__(**kwargs)

A simple constructor that allows initialization from kwargs.

Sets attributes on the constructed instance using the names and values in kwargs.

Only keys that are present as attributes of the instance’s class are allowed. These could be, for example, any mapped columns or relationships.

all_choice_results() List[camcops_server.tasks.kirby_mcq.KirbyRewardPair][source]

Returns a list of KirbyRewardPair objects, one for each answered question.

editing_time_s

How long has the user spent editing the task? (Calculated by the CamCOPS client.)

firstexit_is_abort

Was the first exit from the task’s editor an “abort”?

firstexit_is_finish

Was the first exit from the task’s editor a successful “finish”?

get_summaries(req: camcops_server.cc_modules.cc_request.CamcopsRequest) List[camcops_server.cc_modules.cc_summaryelement.SummaryElement][source]

Return a list of SummaryElement objects, for this database object (not any dependent classes/tables).

Note that this is implemented on GenericTabletRecordMixin, not camcops_server.cc_modules.cc_task.Task, so that ancillary objects can also provide summaries.

get_task_html(req: camcops_server.cc_modules.cc_request.CamcopsRequest) str[source]

HTML for the main task content.

Must be overridden by derived classes.

id
is_complete() bool[source]

Is the task instance complete?

Must be overridden.

k_kirby(results: List[camcops_server.tasks.kirby_mcq.KirbyRewardPair]) Optional[float][source]

Returns k for a subject as determined using Kirby’s (2000) method. See kirby_mcq.rst.

static k_wileyto(results: List[camcops_server.tasks.kirby_mcq.KirbyRewardPair]) Optional[float][source]

Returns k for a subject as determined using Wileyto et al.’s (2004) method. See kirby_mcq.rst.

static longname(req: camcops_server.cc_modules.cc_request.CamcopsRequest) str[source]

Long name (in the relevant language).

static n_choices_consistent(k: float, results: List[camcops_server.tasks.kirby_mcq.KirbyRewardPair]) int[source]

Returns the number of choices that are consistent with the given k value.

patient

“the patient for this task”.

Note that this refers to the CURRENT version of the patient. If there is an editing chain, older patient versions are not retrieved.

Compare camcops_server.cc_modules.cc_blob.blob_relationship(), which uses the same strategy, as do several other similar functions.

Type

SQLAlchemy relationship

patient_id

SQLAlchemy Column that is a foreign key to the patient table.

special_notes

List-style SQLAlchemy relationship to any SpecialNote objects attached to this class. Skips hidden (quasi-deleted) notes.

when_created

Column representing the task’s creation time.

when_firstexit

Column representing when the user first exited the task’s editor (i.e. first “finish” or first “abort”).

class camcops_server.tasks.kirby_mcq.KirbyRewardPair(sir: int, ldr: int, delay_days: int, chose_ldr: Optional[bool] = None, currency: str = '£', currency_symbol_first: bool = True)[source]

Represents a pair of rewards: a small immediate reward (SIR) and a large delayed reward (LDR).

__init__(sir: int, ldr: int, delay_days: int, chose_ldr: Optional[bool] = None, currency: str = '£', currency_symbol_first: bool = True) None[source]
Parameters
  • sir – amount of the small immediate reward (SIR)

  • ldr – amount of the large delayed reward (LDR)

  • delay_days – delay to the LDR, in days

  • chose_ldr – if result also represented, did the subject choose the LDR?

  • currency – currency symbol

  • currency_symbol_first – symbol before amount?

answer(req: camcops_server.cc_modules.cc_request.CamcopsRequest) str[source]

Returns the subject’s answer, or “?”.

choice_consistent(k: float) bool[source]

Was the choice consistent with the k value given?

  • If no choice has been recorded, returns false.

  • If the k value equals the implied indifference point exactly (meaning that the subject should not care), return true.

k_indifference() float[source]

Returns the value of k, the discounting parameter (units: days ^ -1) if the subject is indifferent between the two choices.

For calculations see kirby_mcq.rst.

ldr_string(req: camcops_server.cc_modules.cc_request.CamcopsRequest) str[source]

Returns a string representing the large delayed reward, e.g. “£50 in 200 days”.

money(amount: int) str[source]

Returns a currency amount, formatted.

question(req: camcops_server.cc_modules.cc_request.CamcopsRequest) str[source]

The question posed for this reward pair.

sir_string(req: camcops_server.cc_modules.cc_request.CamcopsRequest) str[source]

Returns a string representing the small immediate reward, e.g. “£10 today”.

class camcops_server.tasks.kirby_mcq.KirbyTrial(**kwargs)[source]
__init__(**kwargs)

A simple constructor that allows initialization from kwargs.

Sets attributes on the constructed instance using the names and values in kwargs.

Only keys that are present as attributes of the instance’s class are allowed. These could be, for example, any mapped columns or relationships.

answered() bool[source]

Has the subject answered this question?

id
info() camcops_server.tasks.kirby_mcq.KirbyRewardPair[source]

Returns the trial information as a KirbyRewardPair.

task_ancestor() Optional[camcops_server.tasks.kirby_mcq.Kirby][source]

Returns the specific ancestor task of this object.
