Designed for interviewers at all levels of experience, The Pocket Guide to the DSM-5 (R) Diagnostic Exam is the clinician's companion for using DSM-5 (R) in diagnostic interviews. Both experienced clinicians and those still in training will benefit from the thoughtful, yet practical, fashion in which DSM-5 (R) revisions are reviewed and incorporated into the 30-minute diagnostic interview. This guide is written for all levels of experience, since every clinician needs to master both DSM-5 (R) criteria and how to conduct a fruitful diagnostic interview. The book: Provides insight into the process of establishing a therapeutic alliance, which remains the goal of any psychiatric encounter, even one as brief as the diagnostic interview. Offers an extensive set of appendixes with resources to enhance understanding. These include a brief, easy-to-use summary of DSM-5 (R) disorders; a stepwise approach to differential diagnosis; the Mental Status Examination and a psychiatric glossary; the ABPN Clinical Skills Evaluation; DSM-5 (R)-related diagnostic tools and scales; and coverage of alternative diagnostic systems and rating scales. Provides a sequential framework for generating a differential diagnosis, using a six-step approach, that will help clinicians develop their clinical decision-making skills and ensure that they take into account the many and interrelated causes of mental disorders. Direct, practical, and informative, The Pocket Guide to the DSM-5 (R) Diagnostic Exam will enable readers to efficiently and effectively employ DSM-5 (R) as part of a comprehensive diagnostic interview.

This slim volume is packed with a large amount of practical information and is an excellent resource for those wishing to have a better understanding of how DSM-5 can best be used in a clinical setting. The trainee will find it a useful and pragmatic text. The experienced clinician will benefit from the helpful suggestions for an efficient and effective initial interview. Both novice and expert clinicians alike will find value in all parts of this book, which will be a worthwhile addition to any reference library. -- Michael D. Jibson & Lisa S.

An extremely useful guidebook for interviewing and diagnosing patients

Reviewed in the United States on 14 May 2014

Verified Purchase

I used this book during my third year psychiatry clerkship and found it extremely useful. The DSM-5 defines the criteria for diagnosing mental health conditions, but it doesn't give any examples of the types of questions that healthcare providers should ask to determine whether patients meet those criteria or not. This is often a difficult problem for medical students and other providers who aren't psychiatrists. That's where this book is extremely useful. It provides examples of questions that correlate to each DSM-5 criteria. I found it essential when I interviewed patients--instead of trying to come up with appropriate questions on the fly during interviews, I'd have the ideal questions already available. In that sense, it also helps ensure you are making the correct diagnosis.

Full disclosure: I was extremely fortunate to have Dr. Nussbaum as my attending during my psychiatry rotation! So, I not only had his book, I also had the good fortune to sit next to him on many occasions while he interviewed patients using the same questions (from memory, of course). Despite my bias, I still think this is an extraordinarily useful tool for anyone other than psychiatrists who interviews patients who have or may have mental health conditions. (In fact, I think that even psychiatrists would find it very useful.)

However, I was very sad to discover that the copy I bought from a third-party seller here (and fulfilled by Amazon!) turned out to be an illegal pirated copy of the book. I reported this to Amazon, so hopefully they will stop that from occurring in the future since it's illegal (and worse than that, it's unethical). It's an exact copy of the original book, even including the copyright page, but the quality of the printing is photocopy quality, with extraneous marks on pages and also pages with faded text. If you decide to buy this book, I would encourage you to insist on a legal copy, which is also higher quality.

Brilliant overview on diagnostic process. Some times look like manipulation with therms, but that is part of professional conesensus. I hope it will help to write my research report article on somatisc symptom presentations.

It's much better than lugging around the DSM, that's for sure.
