Coding Instruments
- MISC - The Motivational Interviewing Skills Code (MISC) 2.1 system is a process coding instrument developed as a method for evaluating the quality of motivational interviewing. It can also be used to measure training effects, expert-level motivational interviewing, and client language. Click here for additional downloads and more information.
- CACTI- the CASAA Application for Coding Treatment Interactions is a free, open-source application for performing behavior coding with digital audio recordings (.wav files). By default the program is configured for the MISC 2.5 but can be modified easily to use other coding systems. This download includes both the software and the manual. An open-access paper describing CACTI is available from http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0039740 and source code can be obtained from https://ctcsu-player.googlecode.com.
- CLEAR- The CLEAR (previously MISC 1.1) is a simplified system for classifying and quantifying client language that is either change talk or counter-change talk.
