Unusual Experiences
BEGIN TIME STAMP

PE1

The next questions are about unusual experiences, like seeing visions or hearing voices. As you
answer these questions, please do not include times you had these experiences when you were
feverish, dreaming, half asleep, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs. With these
exclusions in mind, have you ever in your life had any of the following experiences?
Have you ever seen a vision, that is, something other people who were there
could not see? We don’t mean having good eyesight, but rather seeing things
that other people said were not there, like seeing a face, or people, or strange
objects.
Have you ever heard voices that other people could not hear? We don't mean
having good hearing, but rather hearing things that other people said did not
exist, like strange voices coming from inside your head talking to you or
about you, or voices coming out of the air when there was no one around.
Have you ever believed that some mysterious force was inserting strange
thoughts -- that were definitely not your own thoughts -- directly into your
head by means of x-rays or laser beams or other methods?
Have you ever believed that your thoughts were being stolen out of your
mind by some strange force?
Have you ever thought your mind was being taken over by strange forces
with laser beams or other methods that were making you do things you did
not choose to do?
Have you ever thought some strange force was trying to communicate
directly with you by sending special signs or signals that you could
understand but that no one else could understand, such as through the radio or
television?
Have you ever believed there was a plot going on to harm you or have people
follow you that your family and friends did not believe was true?

[TR7_FILL] you ever in your life receive counseling or medication from any of the following
sources for problems with your emotions, nerves, or mental health?
A mental health professional? A “mental health professional” includes a
psychiatrist, psychologist, mental health counselor or social worker, and
marriage and family counselor. These professionals can be seen in oneon-one sessions, group sessions, telephone sessions, or computerized
texting sessions.
A general medical doctor, nurse, or other general medical care provider?
A minister, priest, rabbi, or other spiritual advisor?
A Certified Peer Counselor? A “Certified Peer Counselor” is a person
who has experienced mental health issues firsthand and has been trained
to help facilitate mental health recovery in others.
A self-help or support group? A “self-help or support group” is a group
for people with emotional, family, or substance problems that is run by
the people themselves without a mental health professional running the
group.
A computerized or internet-based mental health treatment program? A
“computerized or internet-based mental health treatment program” is a
special type of self-help program where you work through exercises that
give you practice in strategies that can help you improve your mental
health. Sometimes these programs are accompanied by telephone calls or
texting sessions with mental health professionals. When this is the case,
we want you to report both receiving counseling from a mental health
professional and participating in a computerized or internet-based
program.

Next we would like to ask your opinion about how likely you think various events
might be. For each question, we’d like for you to give a number from 0 to 100, where
"0" means you think there is absolutely no chance, and "100" means that you think the
event is absolutely sure to happen. You can choose any number from 0 to 100. The
larger the number, the more likely you think it is that the event will happen. The
smaller the number, the less likely you think it is that the event will happen.

Appendix A
Summary of Module Content

Version 4 – February 2017 (Post IRB Approval)

238

Introduction
This document briefly summarizes the content of each National Mental Health Study (NMHS) Adult
Instrument module, provides a high-level overview of the changes made to the module when compared
with the source material provided from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA) and the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), and includes some topics the reader
may wish to consider in reviewing the instrument.

Changes 
All modules were revised as follows.

•

Inclusion Logic. Checkpoint (CKPT) and “GO TO” logic instructions were translated
to question-by-question inclusion logic. This logic, which appears at the beginning of a
question, indicates which respondents should be asked each question. If no inclusion
logic appears in the specifications, the question will be asked of all adult respondents.

•

Logic-Processing Variables. Where logic is complicated, it has been divided into
smaller units, each with its own variable name. Programmers and instrument testers
will use these variables to help ensure the instrument functions as intended. However,
respondents will not see the processing variables or their associated logic.

•

ACASI Adaptations. Most modules will be administered via audio computer-assisted
self-interviewing (ACASI). Where needed, items were revised to enable the automated
system to appropriately read text aloud.

•

– Removed parentheses and instead used other methods for setting text apart.
– Removed italicization.
– Removed underlining used to indicate text that should be emphasized and replaced
with bolding.
– Converted abbreviations to full words.
– Integrated most showcard booklet references into on-screen text.
– Revised language that suggested the question was being read to the respondent by
an interviewer (e.g., “Now I’d like to ask you about…” to “These next questions are
about…”).
Ranges. Wherever a question asks for an open-ended numerical answer, a specified
range is documented within which the respondents’ answers must fall in order to be
considered valid by the system. When a respondent enters a response outside the
allowable range, the system will generate a message alerting the respondent that the
response must be revised. Such range limits help to improve data quality by alerting
respondents to what are typically either keying errors or errors caused by the
respondent misunderstanding what information is being requested.

•

Yes/No Grids. Most check-all-that-apply questions were converted to grids of Yes/No
questions. The Yes/No format ensures that respondents consider each individual item
rather than skimming the list and, perhaps, only attending to one or two items. This
approach should be more effective in the ACASI environment where an interviewer is
not able to prompt a respondent to consider all items in the list.

•

Don’t Know and Refuse Responses.

Version 4 – February 2017 (Post IRB Approval)

239

•

– For each question, there is an explicit indication that a “don’t know” (DK) or refuse
(REF) is an option. Respondents will access these answer choices by using function
keys that have been labeled specifically for this purpose.
– Inclusion logic is provided where needed to clarify what should happen after a
respondent enters a “don’t know” answer or refuses a question.
Fills. Separate variables have been defined to create the text fills needed to tailor
questions based on a respondent’s answers to previous questions.

•

Renumbering. All items have been renumbered, in some cases several times, for logical
flow throughout the specifications. Renumbering will not be listed specifically in the
module-by-module summaries.

•

Module order. Modules were reordered several times during drafting. These changes
are not marked because the source documents were not specifically ordered when
received by RTI.

Because the changes noted above were made throughout the Adult Instrument, these categories of
changes are not repeated in the module-specific overviews that follow.
Key to Header Information Used in the Remaining Sections of this Document 
The header for each section of this document contains the following information about the module.

•

Module Name

•

– There has been some renaming of CIDI modules as Dr. Kessler has worked to
create the CIDI 4.0 versions. The names included in this document are our best
understanding of how modules are now being referenced.
Mode

•

– CAPI = computer-assisted personal interviewing.
▪ Interviewers administer CAPI modules.
– ACASI = audio computer-assisted self-interviewing.
▪ Respondents read questions on their own or listen to the computer read the
questions to them through headphones.
▪ Interviewers remain nearby in order to provide showcards as requested by the
respondent and to answer any questions the respondent raises.
Coverage
– Part 1:
▪ All respondents will be administered at least one question from each module
assigned to Part 1.
– Part ½:
▪ All respondents will be randomly assigned to receive one or the other of the
paired modules assigned to Part ½.
– Screened +:
▪ Only respondents who screen positive for the disorder that is the subject of the
module will receive a “Screened +” module.
– Part 2:

Version 4 – February 2017 (Post IRB Approval)

240

▪ All respondents who screen positive to one or more of the disorder modules in
▪

the CIDI Screener will receive “Part 2” modules.
In addition, 25% of respondents who screen negative to all disorder modules
will also receive “Part 2” modules.

Core Demographics | CAPI—Part 1
•

Overview
– Collects basic demographic information including age, race, ethnicity, marital
status, and educational attainment.
– Includes routing to ensure respondents who are younger than 13 are not interviewed
at all and that respondents younger than 18 are not interviewed using the adult
instrument.
– Also asks for height, weight, country/state of origin, other languages spoken, and
how well the respondent speaks English.

•

Changes from Original
– Changed age-related inclusion logic from 12 to 13.
– Removed ADQ04, ADQ04OTHR, AQD05ASIA, AQD05OTHA, and
AQD05OTHR, which asked about more specific ethnic and racial groups.
– Simplified responses in QD05 to include only five categories instead of nine.
– Removed QD08, which asked how many times a respondent had been married.
– Removed ADQ12, which asked about overall health; this was moved to “Your
Health” (B1).
– Made decision to exclude reporting in metric because so few NSDUH respondents
interviewed in English opt to respond in these units (In the 2015 NSDUH, 1.75% of
respondents interviewed in English provided height in meters and 1.42% provided
weight in kilograms). The following items were removed: ADQ13, ADQ16,
ADQ17, ADQ18, and ADQ22.
– Added required HHS language item, QD55, which asks respondents how well they
speak English.
– Added questions from the Childhood Demographics modules that relate to age of
entry to the United States and other languages spoken in the home as they seemed
to fit more naturally with other items already included in the Core Demographics
module. The specific items added are QDDE4_a, and QDDE7. Similar items that
were included in this module in earlier drafts have been removed. These items are
DE5_1, DE5_2, and DE8.

•

Changes from Original
– Removed AMS7, which asked for the military branch or branches for which the
respondent served.
– AMS10:
▪ Clarified question text FROM: “Highest rank at separation or current rank
(Select One)” TO: “What was your rank at the time you separated from the
service? Was it enlisted, non-commissioned officer, warrant officer, or
officer?” (if “NOW SEPARATED OR RETIRED FROM THE MILITARY”)
or the following “What is your current rank? Is it enlisted, non-commissioned
officer, warrant officer, or officer?” (if “IN A RESERVE COMPONENT”).
▪ Added response category “warrant officer”.
– Removed AMS11/AMS11_OTHER, which asked where the respondent was
stationed.

248

– Per Lisa Colpe, respondents who endorse one IED screener item skip over the next
ones. Specifically, those who answer “yes” to SC8 should be skipped past SC8a and
SC8b. If a respondent endorses SC8a, the program will skip past SC8b.

we mean eating so much food that it would be like eating two or more
entire meals in one sitting, or eating so much of one particular food -- like

Some people get very upset when they are separated from someone
important in their life or someone who takes care of them. Examples
include worrying a lot that their loved ones might leave them, worrying
that some other terrible things might happen to separate them from their
loved ones, and being very anxious when they are away from their loved

The next question is about concentration problems that usually start
before the age of twelve. These problems include not being able to keep
your mind on what you were doing, losing interest very quickly in games
or work, trouble finishing what you started without being distracted, and
not listening when people spoke to you. Was there ever a period lasting
six months or longer when you had a lot more trouble with problems
of this sort than most people your age?
Some people are very restless and fidgety and so impatient that they often
interrupt people and have trouble waiting their turn. Did you ever have a
time before the age of twelve lasting six months or longer when you
were like that?
Did you ever have a period lasting six months or longer when you often
did things that got you in trouble with adults such as losing your temper,
arguing or talking back to adults, or refusing to do what your teachers or
parents asked you?
Many people go through periods when they do things adults don’t want
them to do, like lying, stealing, or breaking rules. Did you ever go
through a period during your childhood or teenage years when you did
any of these things?
Did you ever go through a period where you either broke into cars, set
fires, or destroyed property on purpose?
Did you ever run away from home, repeatedly play hooky from school, or

Unusual Experiences
BEGIN TIME STAMP

PE1

The next questions are about unusual experiences, like seeing visions or hearing voices. As you
answer these questions, please do not include times you had these experiences when you were
feverish, dreaming, half asleep, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs. With these
exclusions in mind, have you ever in your life had any of the following experiences?
Have you ever seen a vision, that is, something other people who were there
could not see? We don’t mean having good eyesight, but rather seeing things
that other people said were not there, like seeing a face, or people, or strange
objects.
Have you ever heard voices that other people could not hear? We don't mean
having good hearing, but rather hearing things that other people said did not
exist, like strange voices coming from inside your head talking to you or
about you, or voices coming out of the air when there was no one around.
Have you ever believed that some mysterious force was inserting strange
thoughts--that were definitely not your own thoughts -- directly into your
head by means of x-rays or laser beams or other methods?
Have you ever believed that your thoughts were being stolen out of your
mind by some strange force?
Have you ever thought your mind was being taken over by strange forces
with laser beams or other methods that were making you do things you did
not choose to do?
Have you ever thought some strange force was trying to communicate
directly with you by sending special signs or signals that you could
understand but that no one else could understand, such as through the radio or
television?
Have you ever believed there was a plot going on to harm you or have people
follow you that your family and friends did not believe was true?

Appendix A
Summary of Module Content

Version 4 – February 2017 (Post IRB Approval)

245

Introduction
This document briefly summarizes the content of each National Mental Health Study (NMHS)
Adolescent Instrument module, provides a high-level overview of the changes made to the module, and
includes some topics the reader may wish to consider in reviewing the instrument. The way changes are
identified depends on the type of module:

•

Similar to Adult. If the adolescent module has a counterpart in the NMHS adult
instrument, this document lists the changes made to the adult module in order to create
the adolescent version.

•

Unique to Adolescent. If the adolescent module has no counterpart in the NMHS Adult
Instrument, this document lists changes made to adolescent source material provided
from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) and
the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH).

Changes 
All modules were revised as follows.

•

Inclusion Logic. Checkpoint (CKPT) and “GO TO” logic instructions were translated
to question-by-question inclusion logic. This logic, which appears at the beginning of a
question, indicates which respondents should be asked each question. If no inclusion
logic appears in the specifications, the question will be asked of all adolescent
respondents.

•

Logic-Processing Variables. Where logic is complicated, it has been divided into
smaller units, each with its own variable name. Programmers and instrument testers
will use these variables to help ensure the instrument functions as intended. However,
respondents will not see the processing variables or their associated logic.

•

ACASI Adaptations. Most modules will be administered via audio computer-assisted
self-interviewing (ACASI). Where needed, items were revised to enable the automated
system to appropriately read text aloud.

•

– Removed parentheses and instead used other methods for setting text apart.
– Removed italicization.
– Removed underlining used to indicate text that should be emphasized and replaced
with bolding.
– Converted abbreviations to full words.
– Integrated most showcard booklet references into on-screen text.
– Revised language that suggested the question was being read to the respondent by
an interviewer (e.g., “Now I’d like to ask you about…” to “These next questions are
about…”).
Ranges. Wherever a question asks for an open-ended numerical answer, a specified
range is documented within which the respondents’ answers must fall in order to be
considered valid by the system. When a respondent enters a response outside the
allowable range, the system will generate a message alerting the respondent that the
response must be revised. Such range limits help to improve data quality by alerting
respondents to what are typically either keying errors or errors caused by the
respondent misunderstanding what information is being requested.

Version 4 – February 2017 (Post IRB Approval)

246

•

Yes/No Grids. Most check-all-that-apply questions were converted to grids of Yes/No
questions. The Yes/No format ensures that respondents consider each individual item
rather than skimming the list and, perhaps, only attending to one or two items. This
approach should be more effective in the ACASI environment where an interviewer is
not able to prompt a respondent to consider all items in the list.

•

Don’t Know and Refuse Responses.

•

– For each question, there is an explicit indication that a “don’t know” (DK) or refuse
(REF) is an option. Respondents will access these answer choices by using function
keys that have been labeled specifically for this purpose.
– Inclusion logic is provided where needed to clarify what should happen after a
respondent enters a “don’t know” answer or refuses a question.
Fills. Separate variables have been defined to create the text fills needed to tailor
questions based on a respondent’s answers to previous questions.

•

Renumbering. All items have been renumbered, in some cases several times, for logical
flow throughout the specifications. Renumbering will not be listed specifically in the
module-by-module summaries.

•

Module order. Modules were reordered several times during drafting. These changes
are not marked because the source documents were not specifically ordered when
received by RTI.

Because the changes noted above were made throughout the Adolescent Instrument, these categories of
changes are not repeated in the module-specific overviews that follow.
Key to Header Information Used in the Remaining Sections of this Document 
The header for each section of this document contains the following information about the module.

•

Module Name
– There has been some renaming of CIDI modules as Dr. Kessler has worked to
create the CIDI 4.0 versions. The names included in this document are our best
understanding of how modules are now being referenced.

Version 4 – February 2017 (Post IRB Approval)

247

•

Mode

•

– CAPI = computer-assisted personal interviewing.
▪ Interviewers administer CAPI modules.
– ACASI = audio computer-assisted self-interviewing.
▪ Respondents read questions on their own or listen to the computer read the
questions to them through headphones.
▪ Interviewers remain nearby in order to provide showcards as requested by the
respondent and to answer any questions the respondent raises.
Coverage
– Part 1:
▪ All respondents will be administered at least one question from each module
assigned to Part 1.
– Part ½:
▪ All respondents will be randomly assigned to receive one or the other of the
paired modules assigned to Part ½.
– Screened +:
▪ Only respondents who screen positive for the disorder that is the subject of the
module will receive a “Screened +” module.
– Part 2:
▪ All respondents who screen positive to one or more of the disorder modules in
the CIDI Screener will receive “Part 2” modules.
▪ In addition, 25% of respondents who screen negative to all disorder modules
will also receive “Part 2” modules.
