[Socio-dynamic aspects within the framework of multidimensional diagnosis of mental disease].

After a critical discussion of the traditional diagnosis of mental diseases, which is one-sidedly oriented toward the nosological model, and dissociation from the principle of exclusiveness of either somatically or psychosocially oriented approaches to the etiopathogenesis, the synthesis of these approaches is presented in the form of a multidimensional diagnosis which is orientated to the multifactorial universalgenesis concept and includes psychodynamic, sociodynamic, somatic, syndromatological, and nosological factors, thus providing a modern basis for both therapy and rehabilitation. Also discussed by the author in this paper are the sociodynamic aspects with their diagnostic, therapeutic, and rehabilitative consequences to sociopsychiatrically oriented psychotherapy.
