Selection Rationale

The Composite International Diagnostic Interview Screening Scales (CIDI-SC) 5.0 was selected to screen a general population for the presence of depression because it is based on the larger Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI). The CIDI has been used on thousands of subjects in the United States and around the world, is available in multiple formats, is easily administered by trained nonclinician interviewers, and is well validated. The CIDI provides screening criteria consistent with the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems 10th Revision (ICD-10) and the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (5th ed.; DSM-5).
