Theoretical Approaches to Psychological Disorder01:29

Theoretical Approaches to Psychological Disorder

269
The development of psychological disorders, which are characterized by deviant, maladaptive, and personally distressing behaviors, has been explored through several theoretical approaches.
Biological approach
The biological approach posits that internal, organic factors are the primary causes of such disorders. This perspective emphasizes brain structure and function, genetic predispositions, and neurotransmitter imbalances. For example, schizophrenia has been associated with both genetic...

Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)

116
The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) serves as the primary classification system for mental health disorders, providing standardized diagnostic criteria for clinicians and researchers. First published by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) in 1952, the DSM has undergone several revisions to reflect evolving psychiatric understanding. The fifth edition, DSM-5, released in 2013, introduced key updates that expanded diagnostic categories and modified diagnostic...

Classification of Illness

7.7K
The meaning of illness is individualized to each person who experiences an alteration in health. In contrast, disease is a medical term indicating a pathological change in the structure and function of the body or mind. It is a condition that has specific symptoms and boundaries.
An illness is a response to a disease in which the person's level of functioning is changed compared with a previous level. The general classification of illness includes acute and chronic.
Acute illness is severe...

Human Genetics01:28

Human Genetics

650
Human genetics provides a profound framework for understanding the interplay between genetic predispositions and human psychology. At the heart of this discipline lies the study of how genes influence physical traits, behaviors, and susceptibility to diseases. Each person carries a unique genetic code that subtly or significantly shapes their psychological and behavioral landscape.
The complex relationship between genetics and psychology is observable through common biological components such...

Steps in Outbreak Investigation

162
In the ever-evolving field of public health, statistical analysis serves as a cornerstone for understanding and managing disease outbreaks. By leveraging various statistical tools, health professionals can predict potential outbreaks, analyze ongoing situations, and devise effective responses to mitigate impact. For that to happen, there are a few possible stages of the analysis:

Area of Science:

  • Psychiatry
  • Computational Psychiatry
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Current psychiatric diagnostic systems exhibit symptom heterogeneity and frequent comorbidity.
  • Investigated symptom overlap in depressive, anxiety, and sleep-wake disorders within a population-based sample.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To apply unsupervised machine learning to understand symptom co-occurrence patterns.
  • To identify distinct participant groups based on symptom profiles for potential treatment stratification.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized hierarchical clustering on 43 symptoms from 6,602 (discovery) and 3,005 (replication) participants.
  • Employed validated scales: Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index.
  • Applied clustering methods to identify symptom and participant groupings.

Main Results:

  • Clustering analyses revealed three stable symptom clusters: 'mixed' symptoms, 'depressed affect and nervousness', and 'troubled sleep and interpersonal problems'.
  • Independent replication confirmed the three-cluster solution.
  • Four distinct participant groups were identified, differing in their symptom cluster scores.

Conclusions:

  • Identified three robust clusters of co-occurring psychiatric symptoms across depression, anxiety, and sleep domains.
  • Discovered four participant groups with shared (sub)clinical symptoms, potentially benefiting from unified prevention or treatment strategies.
  • Findings suggest a data-driven approach to psychiatric phenotyping beyond traditional diagnostic categories.
