1. Janet B.W. Williams, PhD Professor Emerita of Clinical Psychiatric Social Work, Dept. Of Psychiatry, Columbia University Senior VP of Global Science, MedAvante, Inc. 12/7/13 The Evolution of DSM

2. Why the DSM (1952)? Pre-1952: several different national systems in use, multiple state systems Dissatisfaction with existing classifications APA develops its own First glossary definitions of disorders Of little or no interest to clinicians, researchers

3. Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders and International Classification of Diseases DSMICD 1952DSM 1968DSM-IIICD-8 1980DSM-IIIICD-9-CM 1987DSM-III-R 1994DSM-IVICD-10 2000DSM-IV-TR 2013DSM-V

4. DSM-I Classification Acute/chronic brain disorders Mental deficiency Psychotic disorders Psychophysiologic disorders Psychoneurotic disorders Personality disorders Transient situational personality disorders

5. Significance of DSM-I (1952) First glossary of definitions of categories APA in control of classification Influence of Adolph Meyer “Schizophrenic reaction” “Manic depressive reaction” “Anxiety reaction” Psychoanalytic concepts in neuroses and psychophysiologic disorders “...utilization of various defense mechanisms...”

6. DSM-I Description of Manic Depressive Reaction, Manic Type (1952) “ “ This group is characterized by elation or irritability, with overtalkativeness, flight of ideas, and increased motor activity. Transitory, often momentary, episodes of depression may occur, but will not change the classification from the manic type of reaction.” (p. 25)

7. DSM-II Classification Mental retardation Organic brain syndromes Psychoses Neuroses Personality disorders and certain other non-psychotic mental disorders Psychophysiologic disorders Special symptoms Transient situational disturbances

8. Significance of DSM-II (1968) APA decides to use ICD-8 (slightly modified) British hegemony in ICD Eliminating “Reaction” Multiple diagnoses encouraged

9. DSM-II Description of Manic- depressive Illness, Manic Type (1968) “This disorder consists exclusively of manic episodes. These episodes are characterized by excessive elation, irritability, talkativeness, flight of ideas, and accelerated speech and motor activity. Brief periods of depression sometimes occur, but they are never true depressive episodes.” (p. 36)

16. What Principles Guided DSM-III? Inclusiveness Descriptive approach: usable across theoretical orientations Diagnostic (“operational”) criteria Expanded descriptions Multiaxial system ICD compatibility a formality

17. Goals of DSM communication: precision in language, “short- hand” clinical: facilitate identification, treatment, and prevention of mental disorders research: further understanding of etiology education: teach psychopathology data collection: statistical registry

18. Types of Information in the Text Essential features Associated features Age at onset Course Impairment Complications Predisposing factors Prevalence Sex ratio Familial pattern Differential diagnosis

19. DSM-III Controversies Task Force unrepresentative Definition of mental disorder Dysthymia (Neurotic depression) vs Neurotic depression (Dysthymia)

22. Person-in-Environment System Four factors: Social roles in relationship to others Mental health Social environment Physical health

23. DSM Casebooks DSM-IV Sourcebooks Structured Clinical Interview for DSM (SCID) - SCID-I (for Axis I) - SCID-RV (Research Version) - SCID-CV (Clinician Version) - SCID-II (for Axis II) - SCID-CT (for Clinical Trials) Additional Materials

25. 1987: DSM-III-R originally intended to be just a “fine tuning” corrected inconsistencies and incorporated latest research disadvantage: change too disruptive

26. Allen Frances, MD Chair, DSM-IV

27. 1994: DSM-IV revision process based on empirical review elimination of the term “organic” expansion of appendix categories new and deleted categories

28. DSM-IV Process Decentralization of revision process Literature reviews and data reanalysis Field trials ICD-10 compatibility Avoid public controversy “User-friendly” High threshold for new diagnoses

29. 2000 - DSM-IV Text Revision fills 12+ year gap between DSM-IV and DSM-V based on comprehensive lit review from 1992 to 1999 no changes to criteria sets allowed most changes to Associated Features and Disorders, Age, Culture and Gender Features, Prevalence, Course, and Familial Pattern
