Course
Title: Examination of Anomalous Self-Experience (EASE): Introductory interview in English
The EASE is a newly constructed semi-structured qualitative and semi-quantitative psychometric checklist to examine anomalies of subjective self-experience, published and available in Psychopathology (Parnas J, Moeller P, Kircher T, Thalbitzer J, Jansson L, Handest P, Zahavi D. [2005] Examination of Anomalous Self-experience. Psychopathology, 38 (5): 236-258).The EASE targets the disorders of subjective experience, which are characteristic of the schizophrenia spectrum disorders, especially in their pre-onset phases. The checklist is inspired by philosophical phenomenology. Its use requires a certain conceptual and empirical background in addition to a practical training. The course aims to provide such a general background and give training in scoring of the individual scale items. The course will include theoretical expositions but the main focus is on discussion, scoring and reliability assessments of transcribed as well as videotaped patient interviews. The interviews will be performed either in English or in Danish with English subtitles. The participants are required to familiarize themselves with the published version of the EASE in Psychopathology.
