The Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI) has been clinically reappraised in several studies conducted mainly in the US and Europe. This report describes the methodology used to conduct one of the Middle East's largest clinical reappraisal studies. The study was carried out in conjunction with the World Mental Health Qatar-the first national psychiatric epidemiological study of common mental disorders in the country. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic consistency of core modules of the newly translated and adapted Arabic version of the CIDI 5.0 against the independent clinical diagnoses based on the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-5 (SCID-5).
Telephone follow-up interviews were administered by trained clinicians using the latest research edition of the SCID for DSM-5. Telephone administered interviews were key in the data collection, as the study took place during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Overall, within 12 months, 485 interviews were completed. The response rate was 52%. Quality control monitoring documented excellent adherence of clinical interviews to the rating protocol.
The overall methods used in this study proved to be efficient and effective. For future research, instrument cultural adaptation within the cultural context is highly recommended.
复合国际诊断访谈（CIDI）已在几项主要在美国和欧洲进行的研究中进行了临床重新评估。本报告描述了用于进行中东最大的临床重新评估研究之一的方法。该研究是与卡塔尔世界心理健康计划合作进行的，这是该国首次针对常见精神障碍的全国性精神流行病学研究。该研究旨在评估新翻译和改编的阿拉伯语版本的 CIDI 5.0 的核心模块与基于 DSM-5 的结构化临床访谈（SCID-5）的独立临床诊断之间的诊断一致性。
由经过培训的临床医生使用最新的 DSM-5 研究版 SCID 通过电话进行随访访谈。电话访谈在数据收集过程中至关重要，因为该研究是在 COVID-19 大流行期间进行的。
总体而言，在 12 个月内完成了 485 次访谈。回复率为 52%。质量控制监测记录了临床访谈对评分协议的出色遵守情况。
本研究中使用的总体方法被证明是高效和有效的。对于未来的研究，强烈建议在文化背景下对工具进行文化适应性调整。
