DIVA-5 is the successor to DIVA 2.0, the structured Diagnostic Interview for Adult ADHD, and is based on the criteria for ADHD in DSM-5. DIVA-5 is available in many languages.

DIVA-5 asks about the presence of ADHD symptoms in adulthood as well as childhood, the chronicity of these symptoms, and significant lifetime impairments due to these symptoms.

DIVA-5 has been adjusted for children age 5-17 (Young DIVA-5) and for people with Intellectual Disability (DIVA-5-ID).

DIVA was first developed in Dutch. As the need for a readily available, structured, diagnostic instrument for research and clinical assessment became apparent, translations into other languages were requested. These translations have been completed and the number of available languages is growing monthly. Professionals in psychiatry worldwide have increasing access to the interview. 

NEW: Due to the fact the American Psychiatric Association has increased the license fee for the use of the DSM-5 criteria 10-fold, we request a once-off payment to enable DIVA Foundation to continue this important work for patients and professionals worldwide. We thank you for your understanding and support.
