Review Summary: checklists
Date: 2008-09-07
Details: If you are looking for an effective way to ask sensitive questions, this book won't help you. The book is focused on going through checklists of DSM criteria. It does not differ much from checklists of symptoms that the patients can fill out on their own.
I recommend the SCID (structured clinical interview for the DSM). The questions here are very effective for screening for symptom dimensions, and for further probing. For a more comprehensive psychiatric interview (not limited to symptom review), I found Harry Sullivan's book very helpful during and after training.

Details: Book can be helpful for sorting out why a clinican may have picked one disorder from another. Also can help with evidence based criterion for diagnosising.
