Placement of ElectrodesLectureI. 4 Criteria for Evaluating Categorical SystemsA. Categories should be defined by several features of behaviors that are:1. Measurable2. Clearly defined 3. Regularly occurring together B. Categories should be reliable:1. Between raters in a single setting 2. Between raters in different settings (Interrater reliability)3. Within a developmental phase (test-retest reliability)C. Categories should have good validity (construct, concurrent, predictive, discriminative validity)D. The system should be economical (i.e., should not have more categories than are necessary or too few categories)II. Rates of Psychological DisordersA. Disorder PercentageB. Alcohol abuse 5.2C. Generalized anxiety 4D. Phobias 7.8E. Obsessive-compulsive disorderF. Mood disorderG. SchizophreniaH. Antisocial personalityI. Any mental disordersJ. ---III. Dimensional SystemsA. Best example of this is the Child Behavioral Checklist (CBCL) developed by Thomas Achenbach (University of VT)1. Has 150 items which fall into two broad domains, the competence scales and the clinical scales2. Completed by parents, teachers, and older childrenIV. What does the CBCL tell you?A. Takes all items, and through cluster analysis, divides them into eight dimensions of behavior (related clusters) 1. Internalizing to Externalizinga. Withdrawnb. Somatic complaintsc. Anxious/depressedd. Social problemse. Thoughts problemsf. Attention problemg. Delinquent behaviorh. Aggressive behavior2. Leaves out phobiasV. Categorical vs. Dimensional Systems: Advantages and DisadvantagesA. Dimensional systems tend to be more developmentally sensitive (e.g., CBCL profiles differ according to age and gender of child)B. Categorical systems tend to cover a much wider range of disorders, including more uncommon disordersC. Dimensional systems give much more information about the degree of impairment versus the yes/no approach of categorical systemsD. Neither systems provides information about the etiology of the disorderE. Neither approach is particularly sensitive to cultural differences (i.e., behaviors in one culture may be seen as pathological while not in another culture)VI. Axis IA. Clinical Disorders and Other conditions that may be the focus of clinical attention:1. Mood Disorders2. Anxiety Disorders3. Psychotic Disorders (e.g., Schizophrenia)4. Substance Use Disorders5. Cognitive Disorders (e.g., Dementias)6. Pervasive Developmental Disorders (e.g., Autism)7. Eating DisordersVII. Axis IIA. Mental Retardation (IQs _<_ 70)B. Adults: Personality Disorders1. Cluster A: asocial, odd, eccentric2. Cluster B: Flamboyant, emotional, erratic3. Cluster C: anxious, fearfulVIII. Axis IIIA. General Medical Conditions*1. Infectious and parasitic diseases2. Cancer3. Endocrine, metabolic diseases, etc.4. Diseases of the nervous system5. Complications of pregnancy, childbirth6. Injury, poisoning7. *to be used for medical conditions that are RELEVANT to the understanding or management of the Axis I and/or Axis II disorder(s) (e.g., breast cancer, TBI)IX. Axis IVA. Psychosocial and Environmental Problems1. Problems with primary support group2. Problems related to the social environment3. Educational, occupational problems4. Housing problems5. Economic/financial problems6. Legal problems7. Other psychosocial/environmental problemsX. Axis VA. Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF) Scale1.
