Evaluating depressive symptoms in hypomanic and manic episodes using a structured diagnostic tool: validation of a new Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (M.I.N.I.) module for the DSM-5 'With Mixed Features' specifier.

Hergueta T1, Weiller E2.

Thanks, Beatrice. I did see the Hergueta article. Do you happen to know if any of the other M.I.N.I modules have be revised?

The M.I.N.I. has been validated against the much longer Structured Clinical Interview for DSM diagnoses (SCID-P) in English and French and against the Composite International Diagnostic Interview for ICD-10 (CIDI) in English, French and Arabic. It has also been validated against expert opinion in a large sample in four European countries (France, United Kingdom, Italy and Spain). According to researchers at the National Institute of Mental Health's (NIMH) Division of Clinical and Treatment Research, the M.I.N.I. is a fully validated and more time-efficient alternative to the SCID-P and CIDI.. 

As you can see it is also validated for ICD-10. Go to this page: http://www.medical-outcomes.com/index/minifororganizations

thank you

Information on the MINI for DSM-5 can be found at //harmresearch.org

The publisher requires license agreements to use any version of the MINI. There is no cost for smaller grants (< US $50,000), but for larger studies, there are hefty fees of US $10 per administration if a license agreement is obtained beforehand and $20 per administration if not. From Google Scholar searches, it appears that psychometrics research on an earlier version of the MINI has been published, but I found no publications of psychometrics on the current version.

A very helpful answer, Eve. Thanks.

Is there anyone in here that can provide me with MINI version of ICD-10? Any help is highly apreciated. Thank you in advance.

Thanks, Eve. The MINI 7.0.2 cannot be purchased from harmsresearch.org where a view only copy is now "out of stock". You have to obtain a license from Dr. Sheehan and that information is available on that site.

Any chance to find a French version of the MINI 7.0.2 for DSM-5?

Thank you in advance!

Hi Anna, according to the information on Dr. Sheehan's website (http://harmresearch.org/index.php/mini-international-neuropsychiatric-interview-mini/)

one should first obtain signed permission from Dr. Sheehan and then visit MAPI Trust's website to request translations of MINI.
