DSM02 DSM-5 - Feeding and Eating Disorders (inactive)
When it comes to eating disorders, new knowledge has generated the single biggest change in the DSM-5:  a move away from categorizing eating disorders by age, to a united system of feeding and eating disorders.  By combining the symptomatology, it is more possible to study the links, avoiding the generational disconnects.  
Course Objective
This program provides clinicians with the opportunity to learn about:
• Understand in what ways the DSM has changed conceptually over the years since its introduction in 1952.
• Differentiate between categorization and dimensionalizing.
• Understand why obesity is not categorized in the DSM-5 as a mental disorder.
• Describe and differentiate Binge-Eating Disorder and Compulsive Overeating Disorder
Intended Audience
Nurses, Psychologists, Social Workers, Counselors, Marriage and Family Therapists, Addiction Therapists
