One consequence of the longer interval between major revisions of the DSM(from seven years between DSM-III-R and DSM-IV to more than 15 years between DSM-IV and DSM-V) is that the accompanying descriptive text will become increasingly out of step with the psychiatric database. To remedy this problem, the DSM-IV Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR) was published in July 2000. The main objectives of the revision were to review the DSM-IV text and make changes to reflect information newly available since the close of the initial DSM-IV literature review process in mid-1992; to correct errors and ambiguities that have been identified in DSM-IV; and to update the diagnostic codes to reflect changes in the ICD-9-CM coding system the U.S. government uses officially for health care reporting. This paper reviews the rationale for the text revision and describes changes that may have an impact on the day-to-day use of DSM-IV.

Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with an increased risk of major depressive disorder (MDD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We aimed to identify predictors and develop models for the prediction of depression and PTSD symptoms at 6 months post-TBI.
Methods: We analysed data from the Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research in Traumatic Brain Injury study.
A minority of bereaved individuals develops severe, persistent, and disabling grief, termed "prolonged grief." The International Classification of Diseases, eleventh edition (ICD-11) and the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition, text revision (DSM-5-TR) include such grief reactions as prolonged grief disorder (PGD). Loneliness is often experienced by bereaved persons and can have severe health consequences.

Objective: The Adult Scale/National Stressful Events Survey Short Scale (NSESSS) is an emerging brief screening measure for the severity of Acute Stress Symptoms based on the of acute stress disorder (ASD). Scant information is known about the NSESSS's psychometric properties among different cultures or populations exposed to an ongoing trauma and displacement. Therefore, the present study aimed to (a) assess for the first time the psychometric properties and construct validity of the Hebrew version of NSESSS in an internally displaced population following the massacre in Israel on October 7, 2023; and (b) assess the possible risk and protective predictors of ASD according to sociodemographic characteristics, types of trauma exposure, absence of basic needs, and social support.

Objective: Sudden gains describe large and stable reductions in symptoms between two consecutive treatment sessions and have not yet been investigated in prolonged grief disorder (PGD), a new disorder in the 11th edition of the and text revision of the fifth edition of the characterized by separation distress and accompanying symptoms beyond 6 months of bereavement. The study aimed to examine the occurrence of sudden gains and their relation to treatment outcome and content during cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and supportive counseling for children and adolescents with PGD symptoms.
Method: We used data from 118 patients (50% female; age: = 12.
