ABSTRACT
In this article we present the development and application of the Mania Rating Guide (MRG), a semi-structured interview. This guide was created in order to assist the filling of three mania Scales Mania Rating Scale, Bech-Rafaelsen Mania Scale and Clinician-Administered Rating Scale for Mania. The MRG consists of twenty-one Psychopathological Dimensions, that correspond to the Items of the original Scales, and are structured in Questions. The guide was applied to fifteen manic patients admitted in the Psychiatric Unit of the Clinical Hospital of Porto Alegre. A psychiatrist interviewed them using the MRG, and the interviews were videotaped. Afterwards, three independent raters scored the Mania scales based on the films. The impression of the raters was that the MRG allows not only to easily score all the Items of the Scales but also to cover the wide spectrum of the symptomatological presentation of a manic syndrome
