Resumo

The Cultural Formulation Interview (CFI) developed for DSM-5 provides a way to collect information on patients' illness experience, social and cultural context, help-seeking, and treatment expectations relevant to psychiatric diagnosis and assessment. This thematic issue of Transcultural Psychiatry brings together articles examining the implementation and impact of the CFI in diverse settings. In this editorial introduction we discuss key areas raised by these and other studies, including: (1) the potential of the CFI for transforming current psychiatric assessment models; (2) training and implementation strategies for wider application and scale-up; and (3) refining the CFI by developing new modules and alternative protocols based on further research and clinical experience.
