How to LICENSE the mini

The MINI International Neuropsychiatric Interview PDF* or Paper available for licensing.  Please complete the template license agreement for the specific MINI you are requesting by clicking “License Agreement”.  After it is completed in full and signed, please send it to Dr. Sheehan at the email address in the license agreement for review. Questions about how to score the MINI International Neuropsychiatric Interview can be directed Dr. David V Sheehan, the author, copyright holder and trademark holder of the MINI International Neuropsychiatric Interview.  The MINI 5.0, MINI 6.0 and MINI 7.0.2 all require a license for use.

COST

The cost of licensing either the standard or the more extended Psychotic Disorders version of the MINI or the MINI is $15 USD for each administration. This licensing fee applies to all uses. For customized versions of the MINI please review the License Agreement template.

TRANSLATIONS

The English language versions of Dr. Sheehan’s scales and structured interviews are distributed directly by Dr. Sheehan and not by MAPI. You are required to get a license from Dr. Sheehan for all the administrations to be done in all languages in your study/clinical setting and to pay the invoice to Dr. Sheehan for this license.  If you need a translation beyond the English version, you will need to reach out to MAPI after getting a fully executed license for all the administrations in any language.  For more information visit the FAQ page.

MINI TRAINING

There is also a quiz at the end of each of the videos. Those who pass each quiz get a certificate of completion of the training for that instrument.  It is then up to the sponsors to certify them as raters – which is a credentialing issue.
