Week Two Quiz SummaryDear Students,
Here is a brief review of the week two quiz.
Screening tools are an integral part of the assessment process and tested on
frequently. Appropriate screening tools for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
(OCD) include the Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale. Please review the
elements and scoring of the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale.
Diagnostic criteria is also a frequently tested item including the
diagnostic criteria for Agoraphobia which involves intense fear,
anxiety, or panic out of proportion to the situation that occurs in 2 or
more of 5 specific scenarios. Please refer to the DSM 5-TR for those
criteria and note numeric qualifiers.
Additionally the criteria for many disorders included a time qualifier, for
instance the criteria for Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is
presence of symptoms for 6 months. Please refer to the DSM 5-TR for
those criteria for length of symptom presentation.
First line treatment for common disorder such as GAD, Unipolar
depression and Bipolar Depression have guidelines which direct the
provider in medication choice. These guidelines are testable
materials.
Another item you may see tested on are qualifiers such as the
additional issue of delusional beliefs, psychotic features, etc. You may
find it easy to identify a primary diagnosis but find the addition of
qualifiers more challenging. Again please refer to the DSM 5-TR for
those criteria.
