Psychodiagnostic assessment with refugees : Studies on the Cultural Formulation Interview and somatization / Psychodiagnostiek bij vluchtelingen : Studies over het culturele-formulering-interview en over somatisatie

"In the present study, we have assessed the content, the development, and the experience of a cultural interview in the first meeting of a refugee. This cultural interview is an operationalization of the Outline for a Cultural Formulation (OCF), which was published in the DSM-IV. For DSM-5, we constructed a new interview, the so-called Cultural Formulation Interview (CFI), and collaborated in an international field trial.

This study is about the construction of the cultural interviews, and about the evaluation of the latest interviews. In addition, the challenge of building a good patient-clincian relationship is described here.

Another issue is the syndrome of soamtization. It is a complex construct and in refugees it has a connection with traumatization. Of traumatic experiences, being tortured is studied here. Suggestions on how to cope with somatization are mentioned."
