Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences: An Introduction for Clinical
Learners equips medical students and other clinical learners with
the foundational knowledge and skillsets they need to understand
and effectively treat patients with psychiatric symptoms and
disorders within various aspects of medicine. Unit I provides
learners with a global overview of psychiatry and behavioral
sciences. Students are introduced to the critical tools of
psychiatry assessments and mental status examinations. In Unit II,
students are given the framework to understand what normal human
development is or is considered to be. With this information, they
will recognize clinical deviations from the norm. Unit III covers
psychiatry disorders outlined by the DSM-V and corresponding ICD-11
diagnostic criteria. In each chapter, a case vignette is discussed,
and clinical presentations, diagnosis, and treatment are covered.
With this, students will be better equipped to recognize mental
health problems that need to be addressed, resulting in more
positive patient outcomes, regardless of their ultimate specialty
of choice. Unit IV discusses the different treatment modalities
used in psychiatry. The final unit focuses on special topics in
psychiatry, including suicide, psychiatric emergencies,
psychosomatic medicine , social determinants of health, pediatric
and geriatric mental health, diversity and cultural psychiatry,
professionalism, and more. An active learning component is
available in a separate publication for interested learners to
consolidate concepts and skills. Psychiatry and Behavioral
Sciences: An Introduction for Clinical Learners is an ideal
resource for courses and programs in medicine and allied health
fields.
