The new American psychiatric classification (DSM-III) features a radically new approach to organic mental disorders. The concept of organicity has been liberalised to allow inclusion of psychiatric correlates of cerebral disorders which not only fail to involve cognitive impairment but in some cases also resemble affective, paranoid, and schizophrenic disorders. The highlights, and implications of the new approach are discussed.
新的美国精神病学分类法（《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》第三版）对器质性精神障碍采用了全新的方法。器质性的概念已经放宽，以便纳入脑部疾病的精神方面相关因素，这些因素不仅不涉及认知障碍，而且在某些情况下还类似于情感性、偏执性和精神分裂症性障碍。本文将讨论这种新方法的要点及影响。
