    • The subjectivity of defining "normal" and "pathological" hinders universal psychiatric classification systems.
    • Cultural, social, and organizational factors significantly influence these definitions across different communities.
    • A comprehensive understanding of human beings within their social environment is crucial for establishing valid nosological criteria.

    Purpose:

    • To address the lack of universal criteria in psychiatric nosology, particularly in child psychiatry.
    • To present a modified classificatory system for child psychopathology.
