Synopsis

"Learning DSM-5-TRª by Case Example uses a case-based approach to learn about DSM-5-TR diagnoses and incorporates new information contained in the DSM-5-TR text across all 19 diagnostic classes. With the goal of teaching students about the diagnosis of psychopathology, the authors first describe each DSM-5-TR disorder in prototypical terms and then illustrate how these prototypes present in real-life clinical settings. Adapted, real cases have been drawn from the authors' own clinical experience and from the practices of a large number of clinicians, among them many well-known experts in particular areas of diagnosis and treatment. This updated edition includes a new disorder added to DSM-5-TR, prolonged grief disorder, and four new "cutting edge," emerging cases. These are joined by cases from the previous edition of this book (based on DSM-5), which continue to be useful to teach about psychopathology as the field evolves, and with updated discussions"--

From the Back Cover

Taking an innovative, case-based approach to DSM-5-TR, this new volume provides comprehensive, practical guidance to understanding the latest diagnostic criteria—and applying them effectively to practice.

Organized according to the order of the 19 diagnostic groupings as they appear in DSM-5-TR, this manual features at least one case—drawn from the real-world practice of a diverse group of experts—for each mental disorder included in DSM-5-TR. Each chapter offers an overview of the manifestation of the various diagnoses in each disorder class; a table summarizing the key characteristics of individual disorders; and a rich discussion on the hallmark features, prevalence, and common comorbidities of each diagnosis, among other topics.

This edition also features four new, cutting-edge cases from the Conditions for Further Study section in DSM-5-TR and the ICD-11, including Internet Gaming Disorder and Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder, respectively.

Expansive in scope and meticulous in its level of detail, Learning DSM-5-TR by Case Example is as relevant for students and trainees learning about the diagnosis of psychopathology as it is for experienced clinicians seeking to improve their understanding of the new concepts and terminology in DSM-5-TR.
