Engaging case studies drawn from the real-world practice of a diverse group of experts bring DSM-5-TR to life in this exhaustive new volume. Designed to familiarize undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate students in psychology, psychiatry, social work, counseling, and psychiatric nursing with the diagnosis of psychopathology, Learning DSM-5-TR by Case Example is equally useful for experienced clinicians seeking to improve their understanding of the new concepts and terminology in DSM-5-TR.

Organized according to the order of the 19 diagnostic groupings as they appear in DSM-5-TR, this book includes at least one case for each unique mental disorder listed in DSM-5-TR. In each richly detailed chapter, readers will find:

* An overview of the manifestation of the various disorders included in the corresponding disorder class* A table summarizing key characteristics of each individual disorder* Comprehensive sections on the individual disorders that describe hallmark features, prevalence data, clinical course, and commonly occurring disorders, among other topics

Multiple cases are included for more than one-third of the DSM disorders to illustrate heterogeneity in the presentation. For example, there are six different cases of Bipolar I Disorder; these include cases with mood-congruent and mood-incongruent psychotic features, with catatonia, with rapid cycling, with development during treatment with an antidepressant, and with late-life onset.

Distinctive to this edition are four new, cutting-edge cases (illustrating Attenuated Psychosis Syndrome, Internet Gaming Disorder, Olfactory Reference Disorder, and Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder) drawn from the "Conditions for Further Study" chapter in DSM-5-TR and from the current edition of the World Health Organization's International Classification of Diseases, 11th revision.

The book concludes with an alphabetical index of case names and a comprehensive index of diagnoses with their related cases for ease of reference.

Unmatched in its scope and detail, Learning DSM-5-TR by Case Example is an essential resource for all those looking to translate the latest diagnostic concepts and criteria to real-world practice.
