The Diagnosis of Depression and the DSM s
Abstract
The classification of depression in DSM-III and DSM-III-R is radically changed from that of DSM-I and DSM-II. To understand the many changes, this paper explores early diagnostic systems, newer research studies, DSM-I, DSM-II, DSM-III, and DSM-III-R. A conclusion is reached that DSM-III and DSM-III-R offer both advantages and disadvantages to DSM-I and DSM-II. These are detailed in the paper.

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.
