Set of User's Guide for SCID-5-AMPD and SCID-5-AMPD Module I

Expertly designed, the Structured Clinical Interview for the DSM-5 Alternative Model for Personality Disorders (SCID-5-AMPD) is a semistructured diagnostic interview that guides clear assessment of the defining components of personality pathology as presented in the DSM-5 Alternative Model. The modular format of the SCID-5-AMPD allows the researcher or clinician to focus on those aspects of the Alternative Model of most interest.

This set includes:

• User’s Guide for the SCID-5-AMPD: the essential tool for the effective use of each SCID-5-AMPD module. This companion guide provides instructions for each SCID-5-AMPD module and features completed samples of all modules in full, with corresponding sample patient cases and commentary.
  
• Module I: Structured Clinical Interview for the Level of Personality Functioning Scale is devoted to the dimensional assessment of self and interpersonal functioning using the Level of Personality Functioning Scale. Module I provides both a global functioning score and an innovative, detailed assessment of all four domains of functioning (Identity, Self-Direction, Empathy, and Intimacy) and their corresponding subdomains.

Trained clinicians with a basic knowledge of the concepts of personality and personality psychopathology will benefit from the myriad applications and perspectives offered by the SCID-5-AMPD.
