The RDoC initiative was launched in 2009, at the world’s largest psychiatric research institute, the NIMH (National Institute of Mental Health) in Bethesda (Insel 2013; Kozak and Cuthbert 2016). Briefly, the issue was this (adapted from Walter 2017): Thomas Insel, then director of the NIMH, himself a researcher in the field of social neurobiology (...
Another theory that has been discussed in recent years, not coincidentally, is the network theory of mental disorders (Borsboom 2017; Borsboom et al. 2019). It opposes the essentialist notion that mental health symptoms are “surface features” of an underlying pathological process, as in other diseases. Measles, for example, is clinically manifested...
We have introduced two approaches that are in principle complementary to each other: While RDoC starts from basic neurocognitive processes and their brain circuits and neglects the level of symptoms, network theories focus on the symptom level and declare the underlying processes negligible. What both approaches have in common is that they want to ...
In the present chapter we have seen how difficult it is to define, diagnose and distinguish mental disorders from neurological diseases, life problems and from each other. Any theory of disorder in psychiatry will inevitably have to draw boundaries and live with the fact that those are fuzzy. Given the historical background of psychiatry, it is und...

Dec 6, 2017 · We identify four key issues that present challenges to understanding and classifying mental disorder: etiology, including the multiple causality of mental disorder; whether the relevant phenomena are discrete categories or dimensions; thresholds, which set the boundaries between disorder and nondisorder; and comorbidity, the fact that ...
