Iranian Mental Health Survey (IranMHS) was conducted to assess the twelve-month prevalence and severity of psychiatric disorders in the Iranian adult population and to determine the pattern of health care utilization and cost of services. IranMHS is a cross-sectional national household survey with face-to-face interviews as the main data collection method. The study was carried out between January and June 2011. A three-stage probability sampling was applied for the selection of a representative sample from the non-institutionalized population aged 15 to 64. The primary instrument utilized for assessing the prevalence of mental disorders was the Persian version of Composite International Diagnosis Interview, version 2.1. The instruments for assessing the service and cost of mental illness were developed by the research team. The response rate was 86.2%, and a total of 7886 individuals participated in the study. Sampling weights were the joint product of inverse probability of unit selection, non-response weights and post-stratification weights. This paper presents an overview of the study design, fieldwork organization and procedures, weightings and analysis. The strengths and limitations of the study are also discussed.
伊朗心理健康调查（IranMHS）旨在评估伊朗成年人口中精神疾病的十二个月患病率和严重程度，并确定医疗服务利用模式和服务成本。IranMHS是一项全国性的横断面家庭调查，主要通过面对面访谈收集数据。该研究于2011年1月至6月进行。采用三阶段概率抽样从15至64岁的非机构化人口中选取具有代表性的样本。用于评估精神障碍患病率的主要工具是波斯语版的综合国际诊断访谈2.1版。评估精神疾病服务和成本的工具由研究团队开发。应答率为86.2%，共有7886人参与了该研究。抽样权重是单位选择的逆概率、无应答权重和事后分层权重的联合产物。本文概述了研究设计、实地调查组织与程序、权重计算和分析。同时也讨论了该研究的优势和局限性。
