The SCID-I/N-P was used to index current (past month) Axis I diagnoses and assess exclusionary criteria (please see above). The non-patient version was used since participants were a community sample, and not a treatment-seeking clinical sample. The DSM-IV version of the SCID-I/N-P has been shown to have good reliability (Zanarini et al., 2000) and good to excellent validity (Basco et al., 2000). In the present study, all SCID-I/N-P administrations were conducted by trained clinical assessors and reviewed by the PIs to ensure inter-rater agreement. A random sampling of 20% of the SCID-I/NP administrations was reviewed by the PIs to ensure inter-rater agreement. No cases of disagreement were noted.
