DSM-IV stands for the "Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders," published by the American Psychiatric Association. The diagnosis of "Adult Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder" (ADHD) is an assessment process based on DSM-IV criteria.
This assessment process focuses on symptoms such as attention, impulse control, and hyperactivity in individuals. According to DSM-IV, individuals who exhibit these symptoms for a specific duration and at a certain level may be diagnosed with Adult ADHD. The assessment process includes determining the severity of symptoms, their impact on daily life, and the exclusion of other potential causes.
The diagnosis of Adult ADHD is essential to understand the individual's level of functionality, determine appropriate treatment plans, and provide support. An assessment based on DSM-IV can assist in developing a personalized approach tailored to the specific needs of the individual.
