Protocol
Summary of the Diagnostic Infant Preschool Assessment (DIPA)
The Diagnostic Infant Preschool Assessment (DIPA) is intended as an interview for caregivers of children up to 6 years old. It is acknowledged that many of the symptoms are not possible for infants, but many scripts were worded so that they could be applied to younger children and were not based on an a priori assumption that these symptoms could not be detected in younger children. Also, the DIPA should be easily extended for use with children older than 6 years. Each disorder is in a self-contained module. All of the symptoms needed to make a DSM-5 diagnosis are in a disorder module and are presented in the same order that they are listed in the DSM-5 for ease of reference. Each module also contains a section for functional impairment, consistent with the DSM-5.
Utilizing DIPA, the following disorders can be assessed: attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and separation anxiety disorder (SAD). Additionally, these disorders can be assessed: Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), Bipolar I, Conduct Disorder (CD), Specific Phobias, Social Phobia, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD), Disinhibited Social Engagement Disorder, Sleep Onset Dyssomnia, and Night Waking Dyssomnia.
Personnel and Training Required
The interviewer must be trained to conduct personal interviews with individuals from the general population. The interviewer must be trained and found to be competent (i.e., tested by an expert) at the completion of personal interviews. The interviewer should be trained to prompt respondents further if a “don’t know” response is provided.
Specifically, new interviewers will (1) Walk through the interview on paper (2) watch a videotape of a real interview by an experienced interviewer. (3) do a practice interview on a peer. (4) do their first several real interviews on videotape which are critiqued afterwards. (5) Tape all interviews so that they believe they will always be held accountable.
Equipment Needs
The PhenX Working Group acknowledges these questions can be administered in a computerized or noncomputerized format (i.e., paper-and-pencil instrument). Computer software is necessary to develop computer-assisted instruments. The interviewer will require a laptop computer/handheld computer to administer a computer-assisted questionnaire.
Requirements
| Requirement Category | Required |
|---|---|
| Major equipment | No |
| Specialized training | No |
| Specialized requirements for biospecimen collection | No |
| Average time of greater than 15 minutes in an unaffected individual | Yes |
Mode of Administration
Interviewer-administered questionnaire
Lifestage
Infant, Toddler, Child
Participants
Caregivers of children up to 6 years old
Selection Rationale
Utilized and validated protocol that evaluates the young pediatric population. The DIPA is a semi-structured clinical interview that addresses DSM-5 criteria in young children. It was specifically created for very young children (1-6 years). Additionally, it is free to use. Recommended training requirements are feasible within a research setting, and users maintain control of the data and can create their own scoring systems (e.g., symptom severity) in addition to following the manual criteria for scoring for presence/absence of DSM-5 diagnoses.
