The present study had three aims: first, to compare specific facets of impulsivity
hypothesized to be elevated among individuals diagnosed with bipolar I disorder compared
with controls during the interepisode period; second, to test whether psychiatric comorbidity
explains any observed elevations in impulsivity within the bipolar group; and third, to assess
which specific facets of impulsivity are most strongly associated with psychosocial
functioning in the bipolar group.
