PS381 Lecture Notes - Lecture 7: Response Bias, Structured Interview
Document Summary
Lecture 7 : structural clinical interview for axis 1 disorders (scid-i) A structured interview is the way to diagnosis. Designed so the clinician asks standardized questions in prescribed order. Scid most widely used in north america, used for adults. : there is one for axis 1 and one for axis 2. Without the scid, the diagnosis has low reliability. Has open ended interview (they answer however they want through elaboration) vs. close ended. Covers : work history, treatment history, current functioning of client, etc. Helps pinpoint particular modules that will likely spend time on and others that don"t need to be covered. Helps reduce potential effects of a "negative response bias" (answering no to make the interview go faster) There is no elaboration for the client in screener module, instead it will be talked about later. Hard to find where the next question is.
