Descripción
Sumario:"Beyond the DSM Story presents challenges to the Diagnostic Statistical Model (DSM) system from ethical and cultural perspectives, critically evaluating its fit with other professional and theoretical orientations. It offers possible solutions and best practices for addressing ethical, theoretical, and contextual quandaries along with experiential activities that challenge the reader to think critically about both the problems and the solutions associated with DSM diagnosis. This text presents an atheoretical model for incorporating alternative models with DSM assessment." "Instructors and students in psychology, social work, and counseling will benefit from this systematic appraisal of the DSM. Mental health professionals who are interested in thinking critically about the diagnostic process, particularly the fit between the DSM and their particular school of thought, will also find this book valuable."--Jacket
