It provides full diagnoses under both ICD 10 and DSM IV(TR), and also provides a framework for producing a wider case formulation using other assessment frameworks, behavioural, ecological, psychodynamic etc. The interview is designed to maximise the possibility of conducting a clinical interview, even if the client's level of language is poor.
