WHY CHANGE?
• DSM-IV’s organizational structure failed to
reflect shared features or symptoms of related
disorders and diagnostic groups (like psychotic
disorders with bipolar disorders, or
internalizing (depressive, anxiety, somatic) and
externalizing (impulse control, conduct,
substance use) disorders.
• DSM-IV Thin on Culture
•Did not represent or
integrate the latest
findings from
neuroscience, genetics
and cognitive research
•Multi axial structure
was out of line with
the rest of medicine
•Global assessment of
functioning was an
unreliable measure
•Decision trees did not
increase inter-rater
reliability
Other problems
• Separates diagnoses from treatment
• Diagnosis has become an end in itself! (billability &
pressure for scientific determinism)
• Minimizes TIME as a major factor in making diagnoses
• Minimizes emergent symptoms
• Minimizes lack of symptom clarity as an issue
• Ignores internal unobservables
• Funnels tx focus to symptom negation rather than wellbeing
• Forces clinician to make immediate diagnoses
• Forces clinician to more severe DX
• There have been no no established "zones of
rarity" between diagnosis (much symptom
overlap)
• Law-like biological markers have not yet been
found
• Categorical measurement (depressed vs NOT
depressed) doesn’t capture clinical variance
DSM III & IV limits
Focus on only what is observable; limits diagnostic
possibilities
Limited number of observable signs & symptoms
(12 to 19 symptoms )
Because law-like biomarkers have not been found,
Elements that cannot be seen directly
are excluded. This is exactly the opposite of
medicine which strives to see below the surface.
Limited number of observable signs/symptoms
But 400 diagnoses in DSM = diagnostic confusion
Simple counting of the number of symptoms in
Order to make a diagnosis DOES NOT WORK
DSM III & IV – problems with measuring
Limited number of observable signs and
Symptoms, Elements that cannot be seen directly
are excluded. This is exactly the opposite of
medicine which strives to see below the surface.
Limited number of observable signs/symptoms
But 400 diagnoses in DSM
# 1 Problem = under- determination of
diagnosis
Consequences = - boundary problems (paris)
- false positives
- rise of comorbidity
- problems of differential dx
- one size fits all diagnoses
- only agreement on most severe
The relationship between Categorical Dx,
comorbidity and increased reliability
• 1. no major depression; 2. major depression
• 1. No generalized anxiety 2. generalized anxiety

Categorical measurement increases potential for inter-rater
reliability. 50% chance of inter-rater reliability
Fewer choices = easier= less information = more possibility of
making mistake = inflated comorbidity
Categorical measures = No clinical variance & no diagnostic threshold
Decreasing variance increases potential for inter rater reliability and
increases potential for specious comorbidity

Subtle distinctions ; less
Potential for specious
• DSM III & IV turned assessment into yes/no
decision trees
• Inflated comorbidity
• Inflated inter-rater reliability (but did not
increase it)
• Never established true biological markers
• Reduced the rigorousness of good assessment
in the name of clinical utility
DSM 5
1. Emphasizes dimensional measurement
2. Provides World Health Organization measure
of overall well-being
3. Does away with Axes
4. Focuses more on culture
5. Attempts to “Re-organize” diagnostic
categories according to what we now (think
we)know
6. Attempts to “re-group” individual diagnoses
according to what we now (think we) know
7. Includes crosswalks with ICD-9 and ICD 10
http://www.dsm5.org/Pages/Default.aspx
1. Dimensional measures
http://www.psychiatry.org/practice/dsm/dsm5/online-assessment-measures#Level1
• Allows clinician opportunity to “fine tune”
diagnosis
• Captures diagnostic complexity
• Should reduce inflated comorbidity. By allowing
inclusion of crosscutting symptoms (such as
anxiety) within other diagnoses
• Focuses assessment on crosscutting symptoms
• Creates "severity specifier" for many diagnoses
• Dimensions make diagnosis congruent with upto-date neurocognitive research indicating
symptoms are on a continuum
• DSM 5 adds dimensional
measures WITHOUT
abandoning categorical
measures
• Criteria are basically the
same as they were in the
DSM-IV
Crosscutting symptoms
(symptoms that can occur across many DXs)
• Captures symptom comorbidity without diagnostic
comorbidity
• Cross-cutting symptom measures may aid in a
comprehensive mental status assessment by drawing
attention to symptoms that are important across diagnoses.
They are intended to help identify additional areas of
inquiry that may guide treatment and prognosis. The crosscutting measures have two levels: Level 1 questions are a
brief survey of 13 domains for adult patients and 12
domains for child and adolescent patients, and Level 2
questions provide a more in-depth assessment of certain
domains.

SLEEP ISSUES ETC.
level II measures(Dimensional)
• Level II crosscutting measures
– Focus on one specific domain
– Provides a more varied clinical profile within that
domain
– Allows for follow-up exploration with more than one
domain in order to specify diagnostic boundaries. (For
example, in my dealing with major depression with a
co-occurring anxiety disorder or major depression,
with anxious features
– Provides clinical verification before diagnosis
Level 2 measures of symptoms
• Level 2 questions provide a more in-depth
assessment of certain domains:
http://www.psychiatry.org/practice/dsm/dsm

• Level 2 is given as a specific follow up, once
the clinician is ‘oriented’ in a symptomatic
direction they are focused WITHIN a specific
symptom domain

SEVERITY OF MANY DIAGNOSIS
• SEVERITY HAS NEVER BEEN CONSISTENTLY
MEASURED IN DSM UNTIL NOW
– ONE EITHER WAS PSYCHOTIC OR ONE WAS NOT
– THERE WERE NO GRADATIONS
Severity - The DSM uses 2 methods of assessing
severity, depending on the diagnosis..
Method 1 involves using a specific dimensional
measure or scale Called “disorder specific severity
measures”. These can be find on the DSM 5 website
under online assessment measures (DIMENSIONAL
SCALE )
Method 2 involves counting the number of symptoms
and rating severity based on number of symptoms.
For example, ‘mild alcohol use Disorder = 2 – 3
symptoms: moderate alcohol use disorder = 4 – 5
symptoms; severe alcohol use Disorder= presence of 6
or more symptoms (Total number of diagnostic
crtieria)

AND NOT VALID
• REPLACED WITH A SCALE THAT HAS
RELIABILITY AND VALIDITY DATA
– THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION DISABLITY
ASSESSMENT SCALE (WHODAS PP 745-749)
DSM 5 recommends the following
1. Assess symptom severity/severity of
diagnosis-use severity scales
2. Use dimensional scales or standardized
scales whenever possible
3. Assess suicidality, capacity for self harm
or harming others- use separate
assessment protocol
4. Use World Health Organization disability
assessment scale to assess social and selfcare functioning
WHODAS 2.0
• Based on the International Classification of
Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF)
• Applicable to any health condition
• Reliability and clinical utility established in
DSM 5 Field trials
see pages 745 to 748 in DSM 5
WHODAS Assesses the following six areas
1. Understanding and communicating
2. Getting around
3. Self-care
4. Getting along with people
5. Life activities
6. Participation in society

3. How to chart without axes
DSM-5 has moved to a nonaxial documentation of diagnosis (formerly
Axes I, II, and III), with separate notations for important psychosocial
and contextual factors (formerly Axis IV) and disability (formerly Axis V)
Taken from Northstar behavioral health system
http://www.northstarbehavioral.com/Overview%20of%20DSM%205%20changes%20HO%20Ver
sion%20for%20Web%208-13-13.pdf
Axis IV - psychosocial and environmental factors - are now
covered through an expanded set of V codes. V codes allow
clinicians to indicate other conditions that may be a focus
of clinical attention or affect diagnosis, course, prognosis or
treatment of a mental disorder
Axis V - CGAS and GAF - are replaced by separate measures
of symptoms severity and disability for individual disorders.

• All diagnoses are listed consecutively (no distinction
between diagnosis previously listed on axis I, axis II
or axis III)
• List diagnosis that is the reason for visit 1st
Primary-reason for visit, 296.33, major depressive disorder, recurrent, severe.
Primary- Medical condition; Parkinson’s disease, moderate
Primary-305.00 alcohol use disorder, mild.
Primary -v15.81 non-adherence to medical treatment. (Patient continues to drink
while on antidepressants and does not take antidepressants regularly.)
• If the principal diagnosis that is a reason for visit is a
mental disorder caused by a medical condition, the
medical condition is listed 1st
Primary-Parkinson's disease-moderate with tremors and newly developed
postural instability (scored 3 on Hoehn and Yahr)
Primary-Reason for visit, 296.22; major depressive disorder, single
episode, moderate
Case example – for listing of DX
John is a 65-year-old white male who is morbidly obese and has been a smoker for 40 years. He quit
smoking 5 years ago after being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. Over the last 5 years, John's ability
to perform physical activity, has progressively deteriorated. Although John reports bouts of depression,
beginning in adolescence and continuing throughout his adult life, he was not diagnosed with major
depressive disorder until 4 years ago (one year after the diagnosis of Parkinson’s). Since that time, he has
been on several antidepressant medications, most recently Remeron. John reports that he has been a
regular drinker since his days in college. Although he denies it, his alcohol use, according to his wife, has
increased since his diagnosis of Parkinsons. However, upon evaluation both john and his wife agree that
he drinks no more than 3 times per week – usually a six pack. Although John has been advised to
discontinue drinking, he has not done so. According to both John and his wife. He misses his medication
anywhere from 1 to 3 times per week.
About 3 months ago john fell while at home. His wife at first thought it was a result of his drinking.
According to John he noticed that he was having more difficulty standing and walking while maintaining
his A recent neurological consult indicates that John does NOT have any neurological deficits that are out
of normal range for his age but has developed postural instability consistent with a progression of
Parkinson’s
Despite advice to the contrary, John has become progressively more sedentary and has discontinued all
forms of exercise. About 1 month ago, John's employers required that John start working part-time and
consider filing for early Social Security. According to them, John's ability to work has diminished. They
too noted that he was having difficulty walking. For the last 3 weeks, John has met all of the criteria for a
severe episode of major depression.
Primary diagnosis
Primary-reason for visit, 296.33, major depressive disorder, recurrent, severe.
Primary- Medical condition; Parkinson’s disease-recently upgraded to moderate

V codes -psychosocial stressors
Greatly expanded in the DSM 5
• V codes (codes V01–V91) are used to describe encounters
with circumstances other than formal mental disorder
diagnoses disease or injury.
• V codes are taken from the ICD. Their conditions and
problems that may be the focus of clinical attention or
that otherwise might affect the diagnosis, course,
prognosis or treatment of the mental disorder.
• First Incorporated in the DSM-III
• Will become Z codes in ICD 10 -October 2014 (these are
listed in DSM 5)

The DSM and cultural formulation
• DSM calls for systematic cultural assessment in these areas
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Cultural identity of the individual-describe reference group that
might influence his or her relationships resources, developmental,
and current challenges
Cultural conceptualization of distress-describe constructs that
influence how the individual experiences understands and
communicates symptoms or problems to others
Psychosocial stressors and cultural features of vulnerability and
resilience-identify key stressors and supports in the individual social
environment, role of religion, family and other social.
Cultural features or influencing factors of the relationship between
the individual and clinician.-Identify differences that may cause
difficulties in communication and may influence diagnosis
Overall cultural assessment-summarize the implications of the
components of the cultural formulation, identified earlier. (DSM 5,
pp749-750)
DSM and the cultural formulation
interview
• 16 questions used to obtain information about
the impact of culture on key aspects of a person's
clinical presentation
• Assesses 4 areas
1. Cultural definition of the problem (Q1 – 3)
2. Cultural perceptions of cause, context and support
(Q4 – 10)
3. Culture of factors affecting self coping and past help
seeking (Q 11 – 13
4. Cultural factors affecting current help seeking (Q 14
– 16)

6. Highlight of specific changes in diagnosis
Gone
• Disorders usually evident in infancy, childhood and adolescence.
• Factitious disorders and malingering
• adjustment disorders (now included in trauma and stress-related
disorders)
• NOS Diagnosis for all categories
Added
• neurodevelopmental disorders
• obsessive-compulsive and related disorders (moved out of anxiety)
• trauma and stress-related disorders (moved out of anxiety)
• Disruptive, impulse control, and conduct related disorders
• "Specified" and “Unspecified" disorder for all diagnoses
• "Suicide risk" is now specified for 25 diagnosis
Changed
• Delirium, dementia and cognitive disorders = neurocognitive
disorders
• psychotic disorders = schizophrenia spectrum and other psychotic
disorders
• mood disorders = bipolar and related disorders & depressive
disorders
• somatoform disorders = somatic symptom and related disorders
Neuro developmental disorders
1. The term "mental retardation" has been changed to intellectual disability
2. The term "phonological disorders" has been changed to "communication disorders".
1. A new diagnosis of social/pragmatic communication disorder has been added here
2. childhood onset fluency disorder new name for stuttering
3. Speech sound disorder is new name for phonological disorder
3. Autism spectrum disorder is the new term and DSM 5 which consolidates Aspergers
disorder, autism, and pervasive developmental disorder. Severity measures are included
4. Several changes have been made to the diagnostic criteria for attention deficit
hyperactive disorder
5. Specific learning disorder combines DSM-IV diagnosis of reading disorder mathematics
disorder disorder of written expression and learning disorder NOS
6. Language disorder combines expressive and mixed receptive expressive into one
7. Symptom onset for ADHD was extended to before age 12; Subtypes eliminated and
replaced by specifiers; now allowed to make a comorbid diagnosis with ASD; Symptom
criteria for adults reduced to 5 instead of 6
Schizophrenia spectrum and other
psychotic disorders
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
The spectrum seems to emphasize degrees of psychosis
Change in criteria for schizophrenia now requires at least one
criteria to be either a. Delusions, b. Hallucinations or c.
Disorganized speech
Subtypes of schizophrenia were eliminated
Dimensional measures of symptom severity are now included
Schizoaffective disorder has been reconceptualized
Delusional disorder no longer requires the presence of “nonbizarre" in delusions. There is now specifier for bizarre delusions.
Schizotypal personality disorder is now considered part of the
spectrum
Bipolar and related disorders
• Diagnosis must now include both changes in
mood and changes in activity/energy level
• Some particular conditions can now be
diagnosed under "other specified bipolar and
related disorders“
• An "anxiety" specifier has now been included
• Attempts made to clarify definition of
'hypomania". However it was not successful
Depressive disorders
• New diagnosis included = "disruptive mood
dysregulation disorder”-use for children up to age
18
• New diagnosis included = "premenstrual
dysphoric disorder“
• What used to be called dysthymic disorder is now
"persistent depressive disorder“
• Bereavement is no longer excluded – used to be
an exclusion for 2 months
• New specifiers such as mixed features. And
anxious distress
Obsessive-compulsive and related
disorders
•
•
•
•
A completely new diagnostic grouping category
Hoarding disorder-new diagnosis
Excoriation (skin picking) disorder-new diagnosis
Substance induced obsessive-compulsive
disorder-new diagnosis
