The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) is considered to be the gold standard manual for assessing the psychiatric diseases and is currently in its fourth version (DSM-IV), while a fifth (DSM-V) has just been released in May 2013. The DSM-V Anxiety Work Group has put forward recommendations to modify the criteria for diagnosing specific phobias. In this manuscript, we propose to consider the inclusion of nomophobia in the DSM-V, and we make a comprehensive overview of the existing literature, discussing the clinical relevance of this pathology, its epidemiological features, the available psychometric scales, and the proposed treatment. Even though nomophobia has not been included in the DSM-V, much more attention is paid to the psychopathological effects of the new media, and the interest in this topic will increase in the near future, together with the attention and caution not to hypercodify as pathological normal behaviors.
《精神障碍诊断与统计手册》(DSM)被认为是评估精神疾病的黄金标准手册,目前已更新到第四版(DSM-IV),而第五版(DSM-V)已于 2013 年 5 月刚刚发布。DSM-V 焦虑工作组提出了修改特定恐惧症诊断标准的建议。在本文中,我们建议将“无手机恐惧症”纳入 DSM-V,我们对现有文献进行了全面综述,讨论了该病理的临床相关性、流行病学特征、现有的心理计量学量表以及提出的治疗方法。尽管无手机恐惧症尚未被纳入 DSM-V,但人们对新媒体的心理病理影响给予了更多关注,并且在不久的将来,人们对这个话题的兴趣将会增加,同时也需要注意不要将正常行为病态化。
