"The Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-5 Personality Disorders (SCID-5-PD) is a semistructured diagnostic interview for clinicians and researchers to assess the 10 DSM-5 Personality Disorders across Clusters A, B, and C, as well as Other Specified Personality Disorder. Designed to build rapport, the SCID-5-PD can be used to make Personality Disorder diagnoses, either categorically (present or absent) or dimensionally. The SCID-5-PD includes the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-5 Screening Personality Questionnaire (SCID-5-SPQ), a handy screening questionnaire for patients or subjects"--Interview book, back cover.

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. Module III: Structured Clinical Interview for Personality Disorders (Including Personality Disorder--Trait Specified) provides a comprehensive assessment of each of the six specific personality disorders of the Alternative Model. It features clear guidance through the new diagnosis of Personality Disorder--Trait-Specified and elucidates when this diagnosis is applicable. The module concludes with a global assessment of the level of personality functioning and includes a survey of all the personality disorder diagnoses in the module. Module III can be used independently or in combination with any of the following SCID-5-AMPD modules: * Module I dimensionally assesses self and interpersonal functioning using the Level of Personality Functioning Scale.* Module II dimensionally assesses the five pathological personality trait domains and their corresponding 25 trait facets. Also available is the User's Guide for the SCID-5-AMPD: the essential tool for the effective use of any 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. Trained clinicians with a basic knowledge of the concepts of personality and personality psychopathology will benefit from the myriad applications and insights offered by the SCID-5-AMPD.

The Structured Clinical Interview for the DSM-5 Alternative Model for Personality Disorders (SCID-5-AMPD) meets a timely need. The Alternative Model for Personality Disorders in DSM-5 has ushered in a consensus and an upswing in research that has shifted from a categorical diagnosis of personality disorders toward a dimensional approach. Before now, no interview-based procedure has been available for applying the 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. Module I: Structured Clinical Interview for the Level of Personality Functioning Scale is devoted to the linchpin of dimensional assessment -- 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. Module I can be used independently or in combination with any of the following SCID-5-AMPD modules: * Module II dimensionally assesses the five pathological personality trait domains and their corresponding 25 trait facets. * Module III comprehensively assesses each of the six specific personality disorders of the Alternative Model, as well as Personality Disorder--Trait-Specified.
