The Reconceptualization of Eating Disorders in the DSM-5

Description

The DSM-5 represents a substantial revision in the conceptualization of the Eating Disorders. The combination of the Feeding Disorders of Infancy, Childhood, and Early Adolescence and the Eating Disorders provides an historic opportunity for the integration of disorders that were previously regarded as unrelated.  In addition, the revision of previous disorders, the addition of new ones, and a range of other considerations within this diagnostic subgroup make eating disorders among the most closely watched areas as harbingers of future transitions in subsequent revisions of the DSM. Original webcast date: Jan. 24, 2014.

Learning Objective 1
