Development and validation of software for Internet and PC SCID administration
Description: This Phase II Competing Renewal project proposes the development of five timely NetSCID products, all based on the DSM-5 (NetSCID-5): (1) an English NetSCID-5, (2) a Chinese NetSCID-5, (3) a French NetSCID- 5, (4) a Russian NetSCID-5, and (5) a Latin American Spanish NetSCID-5. In the process of creating these products, we will also produce more culturally sensitive and standardized translations of the SCID-5 in Chinese, French, Russian, and Spanish. Together, these NetSCID products will represent five of the six official languages of the World Health Organization (WHO, 2011) as well as the five most widely spoken languages in the world, counting bilingual individuals (Ethnologue, 2011). Access to NetSCID-5 in each of the 5 languages will ensure that clinicians and researchers across the globe have flexible access to a rigorous standardized diagnostic assessment that will be up-to-date with the latest mental health diagnostic definitions, specifically those released wit DSM-5, for the purposes of improving clinical practice as well as cross-cultural research and our understanding of the true burden of mental illness on a global scale.
