Classifications in child and adolescent psychiatry

Journal Title: Archives of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy - Year 2014, Vol 16, Issue 1

Abstract

The diagnostic approach is essential to medicine. It is one of the binding terms of the doctor-patient relationship. In child psychiatry, the questioning concerning diagnosis and its theoretical background is coupled with the specific nature of the subject being studied. In France infant and juvenile psychiatry is a relatively recent discipline. The following paper discusses the development of child and adolescent psychiatry, taking into account the historical point of view.
