antisocial disorders assessment
Definition
- Introduction Using a broad definition, Antisocial Disorders may be defined as pervasive, maladaptive behaviours that violate the norms and rules of a group or society, causing social impairment or distress to others. Currently, the classification and assessment of antisocial disorders may follow (a) the medical model or (b) the dimensional model: The medical model uses a categorical approach in which the presence of a variety of diagnostic criteria, such as persistent violations of social norms (including lying, stealing, truancy, inconsistent work behaviour and traffic arrests), is evaluated by experts (clinicians).
