“…The SCID-D-R is a widely used diagnostic instrument with good-excellent interrater and test-retest reliability (interrater reliability kappa = .88 for the presence of a dissociative disorder; Steinberg, 2000) and very good discriminant validity for the assessment of dissociative symptom severity and dissociative disorders in a variety of populations (Boon & Draijer, 1999;Gast et al, 2001;Goff et al, 1992;Steinberg, 2000;Steinberg et al, 1990Steinberg et al, , 1994. The SCID-D can be used with adolescents (Carrion & Steiner, 2000;Steinberg & Steinberg, 1995) and adults, and can assist in distinguishing valid versus simulated dissociation (Steinberg, Hall, Larean, & Cicchetti, 2001;Welburn et al, 2003).…”
