In order to help people with a mental illness it is important to be
able to understand and measure the severity of the experiences that
they find distressing and disabling and which can affect their
behaviour. SCAN is a form of interview, found acceptable to
patients, which provides a detailed and accurate picture of 'mental
state'. When analysed by computer it provides a diagnosis that is
comparable wherever the system is used. The 9th edition of the
Present State Examination (PSE-9) was published in 1974 and served
to link the two main approaches to the description and
classification of psychological problems. PSE-10/SCAN builds on the
experience of extensive tests using PSE-9. It retains the main
features of PSE-9 and links together the two international
classification systems, ICD-10 and DSM-IV. This reference manual is
a companion to the SCAN interview schedule and software. It
describes the rationale and development of the system and provides
a valuable introduction to its uses.
