Widiger、Frances、Warner和Bluhm(1986)在最近的一篇文章中,对《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》(DSM-III;美国精神病学协会,1980)中列出的两种人格障碍类别的标准进行了评估。他们的数据表明,有必要仔细审查分类系统所依据的假设。在这篇文章中,我们讨论了分类系统的一些不同角色的重要性。我们特别研究了两个假设,可以对DSM-III的影响:它被设计为一个集合的定义,它的目的是作为临床医生的诊断指南。
In a recent article, Widiger, Frances, Warner, and Bluhm (1986) evaluated the criteria for two personality-disorder categories listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-III; American Psychiatric Association, 1980). Their data make apparent the necessity of carefully examining the assumptions that underlie classification systems. In this article we discuss the importance of some of the different roles of classification systems. We particularly examine the implications of two assumptions that can be made about the DSM-III: that it is designed as a collection of definitions, and that it is intended as a diagnostic guide for clinicians.
