Symposium PresentationPublic Health and EpidemiologyMultinational field study # Global field testing of the FLII-11: lessons learned and results from 16 countries Global field testing of the flii-11: lessons learned and outcomes from 16 countries Presenter: Aemal Akhtar Country: United Kingdom Session: 2500 - MULTINATIONAL ADAPTATION AND VALIDATION OF THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION’S FLEXIBLE INTERVIEW FOR THE ICD-11: RESULTS FROM A PROGRAM OF INTERNATIONAL FIELD TESTING Date: Thu, 24.09.2026, 09:15 - 09:30 Room: Hall A4 The FLII-11, a structured diagnostic interview developed by the World Health Organization for ICD-11, is undergoing field testing under real-world conditions in 16 countries before its release as an open-access tool. The Flexible Interview for the ICD-11 (FLII-11) is a fully structured diagnostic interview developed by the World Health Organization to collect population-level data on the prevalence of common and burdensome mental disorders, mental health service use, and the social determinants of mental health. Initial field testing is being conducted to gather information on the tool's applicability across a wide range of contexts. The field testing aimed to generate pragmatic data to evaluate the tool in real-world settings before its release as an open-access resource; to ensure comparability, all teams carried out translation and cultural adaptation in accordance with the gold-standard adaptation method and collected data on both respondents' and interviewers' experiences with the tool. In addition, research teams proposed original studies tailored to the interests and needs of their own contexts, ranging from reliability and validity studies to theatre testing. At the time of abstract submission, 16 countries had participated in the field testing, and the available results will be discussed in terms of specific country-level contexts, user experience, preliminary findings on psychometric properties, and implementation considerations. Additional field testing is ongoing, and the findings will be considered in relation to lessons learned about the FLII-11's psychometric properties, user feedback, the integration of community and lived-experience involvement, regional comparisons, and future research; plans for implementation and platform development will also be presented.
