The M.I.N.I. International Neuropsychiatric Interview (M.I.N.I.) is a short, structured diagnostic interview developed initially in 1990 by psychiatrists and clinicians in the United States and Europe for DSM-III-R and ICD-10 psychiatric disorders. With an administration time of approximately 15 minutes, the M.I.N.I. is the structured psychiatric interview of choice for psychiatric evaluation and outcome tracking in clinical psychopharmacology trials and epidemiological studies. The M.I.N.I. is the most widely used psychiatric structured diagnostic interview instrument in the world, employed by mental health professionals and health organizations in more than 100 countries. The MINI has been translated and linguistically validated in over 70 languages. It has been updated to map to both DSM-IV, MINI 6.0 (version 10/10/10), and DSM-5, MINI 7.0.1, diagnostic criteria.
The MINI for Suicidality Disorders Studies* is a more elaborate version of MINI 7.0.1 for DSM-5. It has additional modules added to the standard MINI to map to diagnostic criteria for 9 separate suicidality disorder phenotypes. Each of these phenotypes has a different clinical presentation and each may have a different response to different treatments. These phenotypes are described in detail in the book Suicidality: A Roadmap for Assessment and Treatment by Sheehan DV and Giddens JM. Harm Research Press. Tampa, Florida, USA. 2015.
