The TDA is attractive to computational chemists due to its improved computational efficiency over TD-DFT. A second reason for preferring the TDA is that triplet instability issues lead to severely underestimated triplet excitations in TD-DFT. While those instabilities are not solved by the TDA, it induces a blue shift; as a result, TDA-DFT frequently produces more accurate singlet-triplet excitation energies than TD-DFT, which is also true for DHDFs. Herein, we intend to determine whether this trend also applies to doublet-doublet excitations.
