Key facts

• PhenX - anxiety disorders screener - adult protocol 120202
• This protocol is divided into two separate parts. The first part contains the subsections of the Composite International Diagnostic Interview - Short Form (CIDI-SF) that screen for the presence or absence of generalized anxiety disorder, specific phobia, social phobia, agoraphobia and panic attack. The second part contains specific questions from the Symptom Check List 90 (SCL-90) that provide a more quantitative measure of anxiety symptom severity. The Psychiatric Working Group has recommended that the portions of the Composite International Diagnostic Interview - Short Form (CIDI-SF) be used separately to screen for specific disorders in the PhenX Toolkit. Specifically, the entire instrument is included as the PhenX Measure General Psychiatric Assessment, section A is included as a protocol for the PhenX Measure of Depression, section I is included as a protocol for the PhenX Measure of Obsessive Compulsive Disorders, and sections B, C, D, E and F are included as a protocol Anxiety Disorders. Therefore, selecting the General Psychiatric Assessment measure in combination with Depression, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and / or Anxiety Disorders will result in selecting the same protocol multiple times.
