The hierarchical taxonomy of psychopathology (HiTOP): a quantitative nosology based on consensus of evidence
Open accessAbstract
Traditional diagnostic systems went beyond empirical evidence on the structure of mental health. Consequently, these diagnoses do not depict psychopathology accurately, and their validity in research and utility in clinicalpractice are therefore limited. The Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP) consortium proposed a model based on structural evidence. It addresses problems of diagnostic heterogeneity, comorbidity, and unreliability. We review the HiTOP model, supporting evidence, and conceptualization of psychopathology in this hierarchical dimensional framework. The system is not yet comprehensive, and we describe the processes for improving and expanding it. We summarize data on the ability of HiTOP to predict and explain etiology (genetic, environmental, and neurobiological), risk factors, outcomes, and treatment response. We describe progress in the development of HiTOP-based measures and in clinical implementation of the system. Finally, we review outstanding challenges and the research agenda. HiTOP is of practical utility already, and its ongoing development will produce a transformative map of psychopathology.

The HiTOP system proposes that mania symptoms associate with obsessive-compulsive symptoms such as checking, ordering, and cleaning.
“Interestingly, this is in line with the proposed Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP) system, where symptoms of mania are thought to associate with obsessive-compulsive symptoms like checking, ordering, and cleaning (Kotov et al., 2017, 2021).”
From Using network analysis to examine connections between Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) processes, internalizing symptoms, and well-being in a sample of undergraduates (2023) · cites this paper as Kotov et al., 2021
Table 1 in §6.1 places both bipolar-related and obsessive-compulsive disorders within the internalizing spectrum, supporting a broad relationship in the HiTOP model. It does not say that mania symptoms specifically associate with checking, ordering, or cleaning; the Figure 1 text in §4 also does not establish those symptom-level associations. (LLM, conf=0.84)

“Furthermore, it has been suggested that these dimensional models may be used to inform treatment by basing and prioritising treatment decisions on the symptom dimensions at the various levels of the models’ hierarchy (see [27]).”

“…HiTOP model is intended to reduce the heterogeneity within and comorbidity among diagnostic categories, and its components are intended to be construed as testable hypotheses that are subject to falsification and revision (DeYoung et al., 2022; Kotov et al., 2021; Krueger et al., 2018).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
