Our House: Making Sense of Dissociative Identity Disorder by Lindsay Schofield Pdf
Our House tells the story of a child who has experienced something that children should never have to experience. It introduces the reader to the people who arrived to help them cope with the bad things, in the house that they all share.

It includes additional guidance which explains the metaphor in depth, as well as advice regarding dissociative disorders and signposts to further help for both individuals and professionals. Bringing clarity to a complex issue, this is an invaluable resource for survivors of trauma and for those who support them, counsellors, psychologists, social care workers and other professionals, as well as family and friends. An accompanying guidebook is also available, offering further information, resources and activities, and page-by-page insights into illustrations from the picture book.

Dimensional Approaches in Diagnostic Classification by John E. Helzer,Helena C. Kraemer,Robert F. Krueger,Hans-Ulrich Wittchen,Paul J. Sirovatka,Darrel A. Regier Pdf
Since its initial publication more than 50 years ago, the DSM has systematized the complex intellectual and clinical process of diagnosing mentally ill persons through the use of categories and classification. The manuals have provided a consistent diagnostic language for clinical work, research, and teaching; have established a common international taxonomic standard; and have provided psychiatrists with a means of communicating with patients and the public. With a new iteration of the DSM on the horizon, the APA has initiated a multiphase research review process designed to set the stage for the fifth revision, due to be published in 2013. This book brings together the most promising research presented at the conference "The Future of Psychiatric Diagnosis: Refining the Research Agenda," which was convened by the APA, in collaboration with the World Health Organization and the U.S. National Institutes of Health. Conferees were challenged to go beyond the current categorical definitions set forth in DSM-III and DSM-IV and suggest ways of incorporating more quantitative, dimensional concepts into DSM-V. The resulting work: Addresses the challenge of creating dimensional measures that are compatible with existing categorical definitions and do not unduly disrupt clinical practice Applies a dimensional approach to a broad range of diagnoses, including substance dependence, major depressive episode, psychosis, anxiety disorders, developmental psychopathology, and personality disorders Facilitates the development of broadly agreed upon criteria that researchers worldwide can use in planning and conducting future research exploring the etiology and pathophysiology of mental disorders Identifies and encourages the empirical research necessary to allow informed decision making regarding deficiencies acknowledged in DSM-IV Promotes international collaboration with the objective of eliminating the remaining disparities between DSM-V and the International Classification of Diseases Mental and Behavioural Disorders Section, the next edition of which is due to be released in 2014. The book's painstaking scholarship and thoughtful conclusions should stimulate interest in finding new ways of combining categorical and dimensional approaches in psychiatric nosology. Clinicians and researchers in the United States and the international psychiatric community will discover, in these pages, the beginnings of a new, quantitative methodology that represents the next stage in the evolution of DSM.
Philosophical Issues in Psychiatry IV by Kenneth S. Kendler,Josef Parnas Pdf
The revisions of both DSM-IV and ICD-10 have again focused the interest of the field of psychiatry and clinical psychology on the issue of nosology. This interest has been further heightened by a series of controversies associated with the development of DSM-5 including the fate of proposed revisions of the personality disorders, bereavement, and the autism spectrum. Major debate arose within the DSM process about the criteria for changing criteria, leading to the creation of first the Scientific Review Committee and then a series of other oversight committees which weighed in on the final debates on the most controversial proposed additions to DSM-5, providing important influences on the final decisions. Contained within these debates were a range of conceptual and philosophical issues. Some of these - such as the definition of mental disorder or the problems of psychiatric " - have been with the field for a long time. Others - the concept of epistemic iteration as a framework for the introduction of nosologic change - are quite new. This book reviews issues within psychiatric nosology from clinical, historical and particularly philosophical perspectives. The book brings together a range of distinguished authors - including major psychiatric researchers, clinicians, historians and especially nosologists - including several leaders of the DSM-5 effort and the DSM Steering Committee. It also includes contributions from psychologists with a special interest in psychiatric nosology and philosophers with a wide range of orientations. The book is organized into four major sections: The first explores the nature of psychiatric illness and the way in which it is defined, including clinical and psychometric perspectives. The second section examines problems in the reification of psychiatric diagnostic criteria, the problem of psychiatric epidemics, and the nature and definition of individual symptoms. The third section explores the concept of epistemic iteration as a possible governing conceptual framework for the revision efforts for official psychiatric nosologies such as DSM and ICD and the problems of validation of psychiatric diagnoses. The book ends by exploring how we might move from the descriptive to the etiologic in psychiatric diagnoses, the nature of progress in psychiatric research, and the possible benefits of moving to a living document (or continuous improvement) model for psychiatric nosologic systems. The result is a book that captures the dynamic cross-disciplinary interactions that characterize the best work in the philosophy of psychiatry.
Updating Icd11 Borreliosis Diagnostic Codes by Jenna Luche-Thayer Pdf
Borreliosis infections are pandemic - these include relapsing fever and Lyme borreliosis. The WHO has recognized Lyme borreliosis as a multi-region 'disease of consequence' for decades. In August 2017, the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control noted that Lyme borreliosis (LB) is among the 30 most threatening diseases for public health (Decision 1082/2013/European Union). According to experts across key veterinary and medical institutions in West Africa, many in Africa depend on livestock for their livelihood and this exposes them to zoonotic borreliosis. Research has shown that many cases of what was assumed to be drug resistant malaria was borreliosis infection. In Australia, the lack of diagnostic tools for forms of relapsing fever borreliosis leaves 1000s of patients without confirmation or access to medical care. Clinicians and researchers across the US, Canada, Eastern, Western and Northern Europe, the Asia Pacific and Africa have stated that WHO diagnostic codes for these infections need to be updated and surveillance needs to be improved. Until this happens, estimated millions of people will just suffer. Studies indicates costs to be in the millions for employers and billions for certain national economies. Based on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's conservative estimate of annual LB infection in the USA, their 2017 article on persistent infection [1] and their 2006 study on the cost of Lyme disease, roughly 380,000 LB infections cost more the US more than 4.09 billion dollars annually [2]. WHO diagnostic codes do not recognize many of the disabling conditions caused by these infections. Across the globe, medical systems use these codes to diagnose illness and determine treatments. The outdated codes result in very sick people being denied treatment -even when treatment options come from clinical practice guidelines that meet internationally accepted standards for guidelines. In addition to denial of care, there are attacks on medical professionals who are following these guidelines to treat chronic Lyme disease patients. The Lyme and relapsing fever borreliosis bacteria -spirochetes similar to syphilis- are known to evade immune response and form biofilms that are difficult to eradicate. Hundreds of peer reviewed publications describe serious physical conditions caused by the Lyme borreliosis infection. They include Lyme nephritis, hepatitis, aortic aneurysms, persistent infection, strokes, dementia, heart failure and congenital Lyme disease. The complications from syphilis are clearly listed and detailed in the WHO codes whereas most Lyme complications are not. From an ethical perspective, there is unjustifiable medical risk involved in continuing to obstruct access to medical care for patients that meet clinical diagnosis and those suffering from chronic LB and relapsing fever borreliosis. Medicine has many cases of scientific debate -for example, how best to treat certain cancers or autism. In all these cases, policy makers have a duty to proactively protect the right to health. In June 2017, an international team of scientists, medical professionals, human rights experts and patient advocates testified before the United Nations Special Rapporteur responsible for health and human rights regarding the human right violations experienced by Lyme and relapsing fever borreliosis patients. These human rights violations are well documented in this report. [1] Cabello FC, Godfrey HP, Bugrysheva JV, Newman SA.

Macropsychology by Malcolm MacLachlan,Joanne McVeigh Pdf
This volume argues for the development of a macro perspective within psychology that more effectively incorporates social structures, systems, policies, and institutions. The book emphasizes how social structures and systems can ultimately promote, or erode, psychological wellbeing. Macropsychology is concerned with “understanding up,” or how we can influence the settings and conditions of the society in which we live. Psychology has traditionally been more interested in “understanding down,” that is, with the behaviour of individuals and groups; in inter-psychic and intra-psychic and in neurological and biological processes. This volume argues that psychology can more effectively contribute at the macro or societa level, by addressing grand challenges and global goals, using big data, and intervening at the population level.Bringing together social, organizational, cultural, and health psychology research, the book demonstrates a broad range of areas benefitting from a macropsychology perspective, particularly areas integral to the realization of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Contributors address the value of macropsychological perspectives in addressing sub-topics such as: Mental health Personality traits and social structure Disability rights Food systems Humanitarian work psychology Macropsychology: A Population Science for Sustainable Development Goals aims to recognise and give impetus to a neglected perspective within psychology, and to inspire a paradigm-widening within the field of psychology, facilitating greater involvement with social justice and human rights.
