The Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) and the historical roots of psychopathology: A viewpoint.

The Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) and the historical roots of psychopathology: A viewpoint. Eur Psychiatry. 2019 Jan 21;57:58-60 Authors: Stoyanov D, Correia DT, Cuthbert BN Abstract In this article we aim at conceptual reconstruction of the historical background behind RDoC project. It incorporates some elements that have not heretofore been included in frameworks for psychopathology research. At the same time, however, RDoC - like any approach to mental illness - must grapple with longstanding challenges in addressing issues about the roles and relationships of mind, brain, and patients' reports in considering the nature of disorder. In this respect, the historical roots of psychopathology remain as relevant as ever. PMID: 30677549 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
