Consult with Dr. Sheehan

Dr. Sheehan only provides consultation, guidance on regulatory agency questions, and training to those who license the MINI / MINI Kid or scales directly from him. Contact Dr. Sheehan at davidVsheehan@gmail.com for additional information.

Training on the SDS

For information about virtual web-based training on the SDS – which include a video, a quiz, and a certificate of completion of training – email training@harmresearch.org:

Adult Standard SDS Training

For certain sites, Dr. Sheehan can do an additional live Zoom question and answer session to address issues encountered after the raters at the site have done a dozen or so with real patients.

Training video subtitles are available in multiple languages on request. Contact training@harmresearch.org for more information.

Translations and Linguistic Validation of the SDS

The non-profit Mapi Research Trust (MAPI) / ICON Language Services, in Lyon, France, is the sole translation service for existing non-English translations for all rating scales and diagnostic interviews that Dr. Sheehan licenses and distributes directly under a license from him.

Dr. Sheehan has collaborated closely with MAPI on these translations for over 15 years and continues to do so. This is to ensure the production of consistent and conceptually equivalent translations of the MINI and its variants and of Dr. Sheehan’s scales, and to be able to provide linguistic validation and certification of these translations. MAPI / Icon Language Services does not distribute the English source language version of the MINI / MINI Kid and scales, which are available from Dr. Sheehan directly.

When Dr. Sheehan fully executes your license agreement request, he will provide you with the information to contact MAPI / Icon Language Services to obtain consistent and conceptually equivalent, and linguistically validated translations and the related certificates.

MAPI / Icon Language Services may charge its own usual fees for this work.

About the Standard SDS

The standard SDS assesses functional impairment in three major life domains: work, social life/leisure activities, and family life/home responsibilities.

About the SDS:

The Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) is a short, simple, and cost-effective measure of disability and functional impairment that can be quickly administered and scored without disrupting the flow of routine care. The SDS is a composite of three self-rated items designed to measure the extent to which three major domains in the patient’s life are functionally impaired by psychiatric or medical symptoms. The SDS assesses functional impairment in three major life domains: work, social life/leisure activities, and family life/home responsibilities. To improve sensitivity the SDS uses a discretized analog (Discan) scaling metric to simultaneously anchor the impairment spatio-visually, numerically and verbally-descriptively. The Sheehan Disability Scale was developed as a treatment outcome measure that would be sensitive to change and to drug placebo differences over time. Its validity and reliability has been investigated in several studies (references 1, 3, 4, and 5).
