Symposium PresentationPublic Health and EpidemiologyCross-sectional study # India’s National Mental Health Survey 2: methods and findings The national mental health survey 2, india: methods and results Presenter: Jaisoorya TS Country: India 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, 10:00 - 10:15 Room: Hall A4 The FLII-11, used in NMHS-2, which involved more than 250,000 participants, showed very good agreement (kappa = 0.8) with diagnoses made by specialist psychiatrists in detecting any mental disorder. India’s National Mental Health Survey 2 (NMHS-2, 2024–2026) is one of the largest psychiatric epidemiological studies in the world, involving interviews with more than 250,000 people across all 36 states and union territories. The Flexible Interview for ICD-11 (FLII-11) was used as the primary assessment instrument to evaluate the burden of mental illness. Given the country’s extensive linguistic and cultural diversity, the instrument underwent comprehensive cultural adaptation and clinical validation before being administered in the field. The adaptation phase included a preliminary expert assessment of the instrument’s linguistic and cultural appropriateness, clinical piloting, interim analysis, iterative revisions, and incorporation of feedback from Indian and international collaborators. In the clinical validation study, the FLII-11 showed very good agreement (kappa = 0.8) with diagnoses made by specialist psychiatrists in detecting any mental disorder. The presentation also addresses the challenges encountered in translating the instrument into 20 different languages, qualitative accounts of lay interviewers’ experiences, and the detailed quality control protocol developed to ensure methodological fidelity and data reliability.
