Although structured interviews are currently considered essential assessment strategies for conducting research, the data they generate are typically not used for purposes beyond making categorical determinations about diagnoses. Because of the need for dimensional scales to be used in conjunction with categorical data, two dimensional scales constructed from structured interviews are presented and examined. One scale, Behavior, Anxiety, Mood, and Other (BAMO), provides an overall score by summing the percentage of symptoms endorsed for each of 20 behavior, anxiety, mood, and other disorders found in the Diagnostic Interview for Children and Adolescents-Revised (DICA-R, DSM-III-R version). Another scale, DICA-SUM, is constructed by summing all endorsed symptoms on the interview. In this study the psychometric and pragmatic characteristics of BAMO and DICA-SUM are compared.
