This presentation focuses on diagnostic trends related to changes from the Diagnostic Statistical Manual (DSM-IV) to the DSM-5, and how to integrate the DSM-5 with the  Strengths Perspective. Attendees will learn about the reasons for the DSM-5 revisions, the process of reaching agreement on changes from a categorical system to a more dimensional system, & the World Health Organization’s International Classification of  Diseases (ICD-10). Attendees will become familiar with the cultural formulation section  of the DSM-5, the importance of understanding cultural diversity, and how to talk with  service participants about ethnicity differences.

Participants learn about psychiatric diagnoses, & major affective, cognitive, trauma, and  alcohol & substance disorders which behavioral health providers encounter. Attendees  are challenged to integrate the psychopathologic perspective with the Strengths Perspective, and learn how to generate accurate diagnoses, while considering the service participant’s uniqueness, social context, and socioeconomic status. The limitations & controversies about use of the DSM-5 will be supplemented by the Strengths Perspective, & research-informed practice.

The presentation includes review of the consolidation of autistic disorder, Asperger’s disorder, and pervasive developmental disorder into autism spectrum disorder, the streamlined classification of bipolar & depressive disorders, restructured substance use disorders, new diagnostic disorders, & conditions for further study, e.g. ‘Internet Gaming Disorder.’

Attendees will learn about the APA Emerging Measures, such as the Person-Centered Integrative Diagnosis (PID) model, Cross-Cutting Symptom Measures, World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS 2.0), & how to use in assessment. Participants will learn about the transition from DSM-5 codes to ICD-10 codes.

The presentation includes discussion of the groups with vested interests in the DSM-5, including the American Psychiatric Association (APA), insurance companies, hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, mental & behavioral health professionals, & service participants in treatment.
