SRF Live Discussion Series: Anticipating the DSM-V
|
 |
Part 1: Is the Risk Syndrome for Psychosis Risky Business?
Over the next few months, Schizophrenia Research Forum will present a series of live discussions focusing on areas of contention within the evolution of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) psychotic disorders area. We will kick off the series by discussing whether to include a diagnostic "at-risk" category in DSM-V. Clearly this proposal is controversial, and Schizophrenia Research Forum will open this debate up to you this summer via a series of slidecasts that represent differing views within the mental health treatment, research, and policy communities before each discussion; the opportunity to provide comments; and a special live discussion on 22 July at 8 p.m. EST (check start time in your time zone). Our goal is to spark commentary, so be sure to view the slidecasts and post your comments...don’t be left out of the debate!

If you have time, sketch out your impressions in a few paragraphs, a mini-review as it were. If you only have time for the three-sentence "bottom line," that can also be valuable. On to the papers ...
