“…It is interesting to note that Chinese psychiatrists considered “communication between clinicians” as the most important goal for a diagnostic classification, as was the case among international psychiatrists in the WPA–WHO survey (Reed et al ., ) and has also been found in other studies (Mellsop et al ., 2007a,b; Bell et al ., ; Suzuki et al ., ). Chinese respondents were also similar to their international counterparts in endorsing the need for a simpler classification system, with the overwhelming majority (81.8%) indicating that the classification should have 100 or fewer categories.…”

“…However, warnings have also been expressed that a national classification may in some cases facilitate the abuse of psychiatry for political use or in the services of institutional needs (Sartorius, ). Previous findings indicate that professional views of the cross‐cultural utility of current classifications varied across the countries or regions (Mellsop et al ., ; Aitchison and Mellsop, ; Suzuki et al ., ; Reed et al ., ). Our findings suggest that a significant minority of Chinese psychiatrists (31.3%) see a need for a national adaptation.…”

“…Zou et al (2008) surveyed 181 Chinese psychiatrists' to assess their use and perceived utility of classification systems using a questionnaire designed by Professor Graham Mellsop of New Zealand. A similar study was implemented to compare views of psychiatrists in four East Asian countries/area, including Japan, Korea, China, and Taiwan (Suzuki et al, 2010). Those studies reported interesting differences between China and other countries, but they were limited by the survey content and geographic scope.…”

“…Well-documented demands of efficiency, flexibility, practicality, clinical pertinence and cultural adaptability and applicability have been made regarding both DSM-5 and ICD (73,74). Clinical research with a GMH outreach include themes of integrated care, special populations, risk factors, comorbidities, sub-threshold disorders and "functional im-provement" (75)(76)(77)(78)(79).…”

Historical and conceptual aspects of Global Health and Global Mental Health are examined and topics such as resources, professional and social attitudes toward mental disorders, the multidimensional experience of getting ill and the presence of world systems of psychiatric diagnosis and classification, are reviewed. The application of these areas of knowledge in medical practice require the integrated use of clinical and socio-cultural perspectives whose precise alignment is an essential component of accurate diagnoses, successful treatments and a consistent improvement of mental health as a component of public health. The latter includes preventive measures applicable to general populations, communities and health care proper. Management of socio-cultural aspects of diagnosis and treatment is imperative as is that of the growing relationship between mental health and neurosciences. The operationalization of this series of interactive processes must be part of legislations which, in turn, can make training, research and dissemination of the resulting data, possible.

“…60,61 Competence measures can determine the skill with which an intervention is implemented. 62,63 If the global circulation of DSM-IV is an indication 64,65 , then DSM-5 may also circulate widely, making an instrument that measures clinician fidelity to the CFI of timely and topical interest. This paper reports initial CFI clinician adherence and competence data through the Cultural Formulation Interview-Fidelity Instrument (CFI-FI) based on the New York sample of the DSM-5 CFI field trial.…”

This paper reports on the development of the Cultural Formulation Interview-Fidelity Instrument (CFI-FI) which assesses clinician fidelity to the DSM-5 Cultural Formulation Interview (CFI). The CFI consists of a manualized set of standard questions that can precede every psychiatric evaluation. It is based on the DSM-IV Outline for Cultural Formulation, the cross-cultural assessment with the most evidence in psychiatric training. Using the New York sample of the DSM-5 CFI field trial, two independent raters created and finalized items for the CFI-FI based on six audio-taped and transcribed interviews. The raters then used the final CFI-FI to rate the remaining 23 interviews. Inter-rater reliability ranged from .73 to 1 for adherence items and .52 to 1 for competence items. The development of the CFI-FI can help researchers and administrators determine whether the CFI has been implemented with fidelity, permitting future intervention research.
