An extension of deformationally self-consistent approach to a quantitative analysis of adiabatic and nonadiabatic effects in vibration-rotational spectra of diatomic molecules is presented. We consider vibrational displacements of nuclei in the vicinity of dynamical reference conformation R_{vJ} that depends not only on the rotational quantum number J through the action of centrifugal force, but also on the vibrational v one, through nonadiabatic vibrational effects of high order. The method is applied to LiH X^{1}Σ^{+}; reported wave numbers of transitions are reproduced with σ̂=1.090 and F=5.98×10^{14} using 14 independently adjusted parameters and 14 constrained parameters t_{i=0-6}^{Li,H}, representing nonadiabatic rotational effects. The latter have been evaluated from the rotational g-factor and electric dipole moment of LiH, both electronically computed.
