        Operationalized Psychodynamic Diagnosis OPD-2

        Manual of Diagnosis and Treatment Planning

        by OPD-KJ Task Force

        The Operationalized Psychodynamic Diagnosis (OPD) is a form of multiaxial diagnostic and classification system based on psychodynamic principles, analogous to those based on other principles such as DSM and ICD. It is based on five axes: I = experience of illness and prerequisites for treatment, II = interpersonal relations, III = conflict, IV = structure, and V = mental and psychosomatic disorders (in line with Chapter V (F) of the ICD-10). After an initial interview lasting 1–2 hours, the clinician (or researcher) can evaluate the patient’s psychodynamics according to these axes and enter them in the checklists and evaluation forms provided. The new version, OPD-2, has been developed from a purely diagnostic system to include a set of tools and procedures for treatment planning and for measuring change, as well as for determining the appropriate main focuses of treatment and developing appropriate treatment strategies.   Target Group: For psychodynamic psychotherapists, clinical psychologists, psychoanalysts, specialists in psychosomatic medicine, and psychiatrists.

        Name und Notwendigkeit

        by Saul A. Kripke, Ursula Wolf

        Kripkes bahnbrechende Untersuchung Name und Notwendigkeit markiert einen Wendepunkt in der philosophischen Theorie der Eigennamen. In kritischer Auseinandersetzung mit der klassischen Theorie der Eigennamen entwickelt Kripke seine berühmte Alternative: die kausale Namentheorie. Sie besagt, daß der Bezug (die Referenz) eines Namens zunächst in einer Art Taufe festgelegt wird und dann in der Kommunikationsgemeinschaft tradiert wird. Dabei wird die Beschreibung, die bei der Festlegung der Referenz noch eine Rolle gespielt hat, irrelevant, so daß der Name selbst keinen semantischen Sinn hat. Namen sind, im Gegensatz zu Beschreibungen, sogenannte starre Bezeichnungsausdrücke (Designatoren), die, wenn einmal festgelegt, denselben Gegenstand in allen möglichen Welten bezeichnen. Daraus ergibt sich die Verbindung zum zweiten Thema der Untersuchung, der Notwendigkeit.

        Textbook on Basics, Clinic and Therapy

        by Rüdiger Kißgen, Kathrin Sevecke (Eds.)

After a compact presentation of child development in the first six years of life, possible clinical disorders are presented, stringently structured according to classification, prevalence, causes, diagnosis, and therapy. The disorders that are covered in this book include autism spectrum disorders, ADHD, anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorders, affective disorders, sleep, eating, and crying disorders, trauma, stress, and deprivation disorders, and attachment and relationship disorders of early childhood.

        Diagnosis Digital Disaster

        Can the healthcare system still be saved?

        by Peter Schaar

        — Ways out of the digital disaster — For healthcare professionals and informed patients Modern information technologies can and should contribute to improving the quality and transparency of medical care and making healthcare more economical – and all for the benefit and well-being of patients. Well, that would be the noble approach. All the talk about health insurance cards, telematics infrastructure and electronic patient files stirs up emotions. Peter Schaar, long-standing Federal Data Protection Commissioner, brings light to the dark data and health thicket. Why are innovations in the healthcare sector met with great scepticism by many stakeholders? How can we speed up the development and implementation of meaningful ITsupported solutions? What role does the narrow, small-scale regulatory framework play – not only, but also in data protection?
