Introduction to conceptual explorations on person-centered medicine
Person-centered diagnosis
The person-centered integrative diagnosis model (PID) is the key diagnostic project of the Psychiatry for the Person Institutional Program of the World Psychiatric Association (WPA General Assembly, 2005) which proposes the whole person in context, as the center and goal of clinical care and public health [9]. The PID is the operational articulation of the psychiatry for the person diagnostic principles with the goal of developing a model applica…
World Psychiatric Association perspectives on person-centered psychiatry and medicine
The status of psychiatry around the world, as perceived during the first decade of this millennium reflects the great opportunities and challenges for understanding the human mind. We have learned much about neurotransmission, learning, memory, and brain development, and these basic insights have made possible the design of several classes of psychoactive drugs and psychosocial techniques for treatment [1]
Measuring Cultural Identity
Professional perspectives on bridging
The increasing need for bridging in the complex and interactive world in which we live is particularly compelling in the case of fields such as ageing and disabilities where contextualization and intersectoral collaboration are paramount. Such bridging involves both conceptual (ethical and scientific) formulations and the engagement of real people and groups
Cultural Formulation Guidelines
The outline for the Cultural Formulation (CF) introduced in DSM-IV does not present any method for collecting the required cultural information. The absence of specific guidelines and illustrative cases has hampered its wider use. This article offers a practical approach to preparing a Cultural Formulation as a component of culturally competent clinical care. We summarize the rationale for the four sections of the CF, describe the process of cond…

The Place of Culture in DSM-IV
This paper critically reviews the process and outcome of an effort to enhance the cultural validity of DSM-IV and outlines recommendations to improve future diagnostic systems. An ordered presentation of the antecedents and the main phases of this developmental effort is followed by a content analysis of what was proposed and what was actually incorporated, and a conceptual analysis of underlying biases and their implications. The cultural effort…
Mental health care for Hispanic Americans
In this article, the authors review patterns and challenges in the conceptualization, implementation, and academic support of the mental health services of Hispanic Americans. A critical analysis was conducted on information obtained through manual and computerized searches of published literature and conference reports. New clinical care approaches include the DSM-IV's cultural formulation with its complement of standardized multiaxial diagnosis…
