The diagnosis and assessment of personality disorders has lagged
considerably behind that of most other mental disorders. However,
the IPDE is an instrument which is compatible, through two modules,
with both ICD-10 and DSM-IV criteria. In the form of a
semi-structured clinical interview, it provides a means of
measuring major categories of personality disorders which have been
previously ignored. It is also unique in that it seeks to secure
reliable and uniform diagnosis which is both internationally and
cross-culturally acceptable. Written by leading international
authorities, this volume forms an invaluable reference manual to
the IPDE instrument and its development. Its first section includes
an overview of the worldwide field trials of the interview and
aspects of epidemiology which affect the current status of
diagnosis and assessment research. The second section detailing the
full interview schedule and scoring system for the instrument will
further facilitate its use by both clinician and researcher.
