The patient interview is at the heart of psychiatric practice.Listening and interviewing skills are the primary tools thepsychiatrist uses to obtain the information needed to make anaccurate diagnosis and then to plan appropriate treatment. TheAmerican Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and the AccreditingCouncil on Graduate Medical Education identify interviewing skillsas a core competency for psychiatric residents.
The Psychiatric Interview: Evaluation and Diagnosis is anew and modern approach to this topic that fulfils the need fortraining in biopsychosocial assessment and diagnosis. It makes useof both classical and new knowledge of psychiatric diagnosis,assessment, treatment planning, and doctor-patientcollaboration. Written by world leaders in education, the book isbased on the acclaimed Psychiatry, Third Edition, by Tasmanand Kay et al., with new chapters to address assessment inspecial populations and formulation. The psychiatric interview isconceptualized as integrating the patient's experience withpsychological, biological, and environmental components of theillness.
This is an excellent new text for psychiatry residents at allstages of their training. It is also useful for medical studentsinterested in psychiatry and for practicing psychiatrists who maywish to refresh their interviewing skills.
