Pre-Recorded LecturesLecture 1: Diagnosis in Context
Severe Mental Illness (SMI)
The National Institute of Mental Health – defined SMI using the following criteria:
1) A major diagnosis of non-organic psychosis or personality disorder
2) Duration of at least 2 years
3) At least three of the five categories of functional disabilities
Diagnosis
A major affective, non-organic psychotic disorder – or a disorder that may lead to a chronic
disability such as BPD
Duration
Treatment history meets one or both of the following criteria:
1) Has undergone psychiatric treatment more intensive than outpatient care more than
once in a lifetime
- E.g., crisis response services, alternative home care, partial hospitalization, or
inpatient hospitalization
2) Has experienced an episode of continuous, supportive residential care – other than
hospitalization – for a period long enough to have sig disrupted the normal living
situation
Disability
Severe recurrent disability resulting from mental illness – the disability results in functional
limitations in major life activities
Individuals must meet at least two of the following criteria on a continuing or intermittent
basis:
1) Is unemployed, is employed in a sheltered setting or supportive work situation – or
has markedly limited skills and a poor work history
, 2) Requires public financial assistance from out-of-hospital maintenance – and may be
unable to procure such assistance without help
3) Has difficulty in establishing or maintaining a personal social support system
4) Exhibits inappropriate social behavior – which results in intervention by the mental
and/or judicial system

2) Low SES 4) Hopelessness
, 5) Criminal/inappropriate social
behavior
Dual diagnosis:
1) In combination with substance use
2) Childhood trauma, abuse, attachment problems
3) Depressive or anxiety symptoms
Perspective on SMI
For much of the 20th century – severe mental illness was considered chronic and
deteriorating – requiring institutional tertiary care or high-intensity secondary care
This approach changed in the 60s – with the advent of anti-psychotic drugs – and
subsequent deinstitutionalization
- Which gave new hope to patients with SMI who were discharged into the
community
From Care to Cure
Severe Mental Illness:
1) Drug-based treatment
2) Disease model
3) Term implies medical discourse of cure
Definitions
Ontology State/way of being – what we assume the world is like
With cancer we can look into the body – and see its cause (e.g., tumor)
With psychology – it is more difficult to touch and grasp what a psych
disorder is – and what its cause is (difficult and vague)
Epistemology How we can know, understand, describe reality
“If we want to understand disorders – we have to describe symptoms as
clearly as possible”
Nomothetic Approach Regular, lawful approach
Is after universal laws – things that go for everyone
, Very big in the medical world
Idiographic Approach Looks to the individual
Dimensional, developmental, subjective, gradual
Diagnosis in context – diagnosis is not an explanation but an
understanding and it has to have a utility
More holistic approach – interaction and person-oriented
Variation and change in individuals
Effects of specific interventions – key elements
The therapist and the patient as individual persons – and their interactions
Nomothetic Approach
The nomothetic approach – i.e., explanation of symptoms by underlying diseases
- Focus on universal/lawful disease states
When person X has disease Y – the disease causes
symptoms x, y, z
The Cure-Paradigm in Psychiatry
Ontology – Theory of Being
Ontology – i.e., theory of being – is a casual disease model
1) Symptoms – are observable signs of the underlying cause
2) Treatment Goal – is to eliminate the cause
3) Treatment Outcome Monitoring – is to observe reduction of symptoms as signs of
elimination of cause
4) End Result – no more symptoms interpreted as no more disease
Epistemology – Theory of Knowledge
