对婴儿和学龄前儿童（0-5岁）精神障碍的系统研究远远落后于对年龄较大的儿童、青少年和成人的研究。促进此类研究的第一步是制定明确的诊断标准，这些标准可以可靠地应用于多个样本的标准化评估。2000-2002年，一个独立调查员工作组首次在学龄前儿童中制定了研究诊断标准（RDC-PA），目的是促进对精神疾病的系统研究。本文回顾了儿童早期精神病理学研究的历史，总结了效度研究，并描述了这一努力背后的过程。
Systematic research on psychiatric disorders in infants and preschool children (0-5 years old) has lagged considerably behind that for older children, adolescents, and adults. The first step in facilitating such research is developing clearly specified diagnostic criteria that can be reliably applied within standardized assessments across multiple samples. In 2000-2002, a task force of independent investigators developed the Research Diagnostic Criteria-Preschool Age (RDC-PA) for the first time in this age group, with the goal of promoting systematic research on psychiatric disorders. This paper reviews the history of research on psychopathology in early childhood, summarizes the studies on validity, and describes the process behind this effort.
