title: [Comparison between the AMDP system and other standardized systems and multifactorial scales for the evaluation of psychopathology (author's transl)].
abstract: The author compares the advantages and disadvantages of psychiatric documentation and rating systems (the AMDP and MSIS systems), and of major multiphasic rating scales (the CPRS, IMPS, PSE, SCI and WPRS scales). He briefly describes the history and content of the AMDP System, formerly known as AMP. This standardized system of alemanic origin is presently adapted or being adapted in nine languages (Croatian, English, Esthonian, French, Italian, Japanese, Portugese, Russian and Spanish). Of the four forms, only the two forms designed for the quantitative assessment of pychopathological and somatic symptoms have been included in the first edition of the French adaptation (1978). Similarities and dissimilarities between the German system and its first French adaptation are discussed.
