The Farsi translation of the DIVA-5 for adult ADHD assessment demonstrates strong reliability and validity, including good test-retest stability (kappa ≈ 0.857) and high inter-rater agreement (0.589–0.933). With an 81.66% agreement rate with the SCID-5, the tool provides a robust, evidence-based method for evaluating DSM-5 criteria across lifespan symptoms and functional impairment domains. For detailed methodology, see the study on SAGE Journals SAGE Journals . Diagnostic Interview for ADHD in adults (DIVA)
