Frequently Asked Questions (15)
Q2. What was the criterion used to determine the minimum CIDI-SC question set?
Iterative stepwise logistic regression was then used (0.05-level entry criterion) to predict SCID diagnoses from CIDI-SC symptoms to determine the minimum CIDI-SC question set needed to approximate SCID diagnoses.
Q3. What is the way to build a critical mass of data?
One way to build a critical mass of such data would be to blend longitudinal clinical epidemiological studies with community epidemiological surveys.
Q4. What is the threshold for LRx?
LRx isf0.2 for only two diagnoses at the optimal threshold (MDE and PD) whereas LRx is never below 0.2, meaning that none of the diagnoses can be ruled out confidentlywithCIDI-SC scores below the optimal diagnostic threshold.
Q5. How many patients can be ruled out of MDE?
For MDE, 54.1% of patients can be ruled out [i.e. at a threshold where 45.9% (100%–45.9%=54.1%) of patients screen positive] with LRx 0.1 (NPV=99.7%).
Q6. What is the purpose of the screening scales?
Screening scale responses are being ‘preloaded’ in the computerized scripts of the second-stage interviews to control question skip logic (e.g. skipping sections based on negative screening responses ; expanding questions based on positive screening responses).
Q7. What was the purpose of the cognitive debriefing interviews?
These interviews were conducted by professional cognitiveinterviewers using the ‘ think aloud’ method (Presser et al. 2004) to elicit initial respondent reactions and collect alternative terminologies for confusing phrases.
Q8. What is the true prevalence of PD?
If the authors assumethat the true PD prevalence is in the range 5–15% in primary care and SN–SP estimates are accurate, confirmation of screened positives would be 35–65% for CIDI-SC andWB-DAT, 17–77% for the GAD-7, and no higher than 20–45% for other screening scales.
Q9. What limitations are there to the clinical reappraisal sample?
their clinical reappraisal sample was relatively small because of funding limitations, precluding cross-validation, subgroup analysis, or analysis of information values across the range of continuous CIDI-SC scores to evaluate sensitivity to change.
Q10. What was the ROC curve used to estimate the area under the CIDI-SC score?
An unweightedsummary CIDI-SC score was created for each diagnosis from this minimum symptom set and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis (Margolis et al. 2002) was used to estimate the area under the ROC curve (AUC) for each scale.
Q11. What is the advantage of CIDI-SC over other screening scales?
continuous CIDI-SC scores can be converted into predicted probabilities of clinical diagnoses in epidemiological studies to yield more accurate estimates of prevalence than by dichotomizing scores and classifying each respondent as either a definite case or a non-case.
Q12. How many items were entered to screen out the majority of primary care patients?
The three CIDI-SC diagnostic stem questions for MDE combined with two for GAD, two for PD and two for BPD create a set of only nine items that screenout the majority of primary care patients in less than 3 min.
Q13. What is the widely used BPD screening scale?
Although the Mood Disorder Questionnaire (MDQ; Hirschfeld et al. 2000) is by far the most widely used BPD screening scale, the vast majority of MDQ studies focus on patients in treatment for depression and investigate whether those with BPD can be distinguished from non-bipolar depressives (Hirschfeld et al.
Q14. What is the use of skip logic in the CIDI-SC?
This skip logic is also used in the CIDI-SC based on the assumption that tablet computers will be used to administer, score and print out summary screening scale results.
Q15. What is the important study of mental disorders in primary care?
the most important clinical epidemiological study of mental disorders in primary care remains the World Health Organization (WHO) Collaborative Study on Psychological Problems in General Health Care (Üstün & Sartorius, 1995), a study carried out nearly two decades ago that led to few extensions (e.g. Wittchen et al.
