This efficient, user-friendly instrument will help clinicians make standardized, reliable, and accurate diagnoses and avoid the common problem of "premature closure" -- the premature focus on one diagnostic possibility. It will also help clinicians of all levels of experience improve their clinical assessment and interviewing techniques and provides extensive documentation of the diagnostic process, an essential procedure in today's managed care world. Specifically adapted from the research standard for Axis I structured clinical interviewing for use in clinical settings, the SCID-I covers those DSM-IV diagnoses most commonly seen by clinicians and includes the diagnostic criteria for these disorders with corresponding interview questions. The SCID-I is divided into six self-contained modules that can be administered in sequence: mood episodes; psychotic symptoms; psychotic disorders; mood disorders; substance use disorders; and anxiety, adjustment, and other disorders. The Scoresheet, available in sets of five, is a one-time-use scoresheet used to record diagnostic decisions. It also contains abridged DSM-IV diagnostic criteria. This is a package of 5.

An invaluable addition to the DSM-IV-TR Library, DSM-IV-TRA? Handbook of Differential Diagnosis is a succinct reference to help ensure that you consider all the important diagnoses that need to be ruled out during a clinical evaluation. It is a great convenience for busy practitioners and a valuable overview for trainees. The Handbook provides -The six crucial steps in differential diagnosis that must be considered for each and every patient -27 decision trees that teach you how to go from the most common presenting symptoms to a final diagnosis -62 differential diagnosis tables, each of which provides a head-to-head comparison of a disorder with its differential diagnostic contenders -A unique symptom index for DSM-IV-TR that lists in a convenient form those disorders that you should consider when formulating a differential diagnosis given a particular symptom in the patient's presentation The information provided in the decision trees, the differential diagnosis tables, and the symptom index is rich with information, each format with its own strengths, depending on the needs of a particular clinical situation. By presenting the problem from a number of different perspectives, this Handbook should improve your skill in formulating a comprehensive differential diagnosis.

It contains sections describing the rationale and structure of the SCID-I and detailed discussions on how to assess the specific DSM-IV criteria. A number of sample cases are also included to help clinicians learn how to use SCID-I.

This text aims to provide the reader with a variety of clinical tools to facilitate a comprehensive differential diagnosis. "DSM-IV" is most easily accessed when looking up information about a particular disorder. This handbook provides a symptom-based perspective on DSM-IV, helping to guide the clinician when faced with the everday task of formulating a differential diagnosis given a particular presenting symptom. This handbook includes a presentation and discussion of the six basic steps in differential diagnosis that must be considered for each and every patient being evaluated. It uses 27 decision trees that indicate which DSM-IV disorders should be considered in the differential diagnosis of the most common presenting symptoms, and that outline the thinking process involved in choosing among them. A symptom index for DSM-IV lists, in a convenient form, those disorders that one should think of when formulating a differential diagnosis given a particular symptom in the patient's presentation. It also includes 62 differential diagnosis tables, each of which provides a head-to-head comparison of a disorder with its differential diagnostic contenders. The information provided in the decision trees, the differential diagnosis tables, and the symptom index is somewhat overlapping, but each format has its own strengths, depending on the reader's needs in a particular clinical situation. By presenting the problem from a number of different perspectives, this handbook should improve the reader's skill in formulating a comprehensive differential diagnosis.

The Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis II Personality Disorders (SCID-II) is an efficient, user-friendly instrument that will help researchers and clinicians make standardized, reliable, and accurate diagnoses of the 10 DSM-IV Axis II personality disorders as well as depressive personality disorder, passive-aggressive personality disorder, and personality disorder not otherwise specified. Now compatible with DSM-IV, the interview questions have been redesigned to reflect the subject's inner experience. This instrument begins with a brief overview that characterizes the subject's typical behavior and relationships and elicits information about the subject's capacity for self-reflection. It then considers each of the personality disorders in detail. The User's Guide provides instructions on how to use the SCID-II effectively. It contains sections describing the rationale and structure of the SCID-II and a detailed item-by-item commentary on the SCID-II. A sample case is also included to help clinicians learn to use the SCID-II.
