    MESSAGE FROM THE WPA PRESIDENT 2005-2008 (From WPA Electronic Bulletin February 2008) The Paris Conference and Psychiatry for the Person: Journey and Commitment Dear Colleagues and Friends, The Initiative of the World Psychiatric Association on Psychiatry for the Person, since its establishment by the General Assembly in Cairo, has been taking shape along conceptual, diagnostic, clinical care and public health streams. Through them, the objective of promoting a psychiatry of the person, for the person, by the person and with the person is taking hold. At the same time, the various components of the WPA family have been gradually engaged in the program and other international health organizations are taking notice. These steps gained momentum with the London Conference on Person-centered Integrative Diagnosis and Psychiatry for the Person in October 2007. Its organization by both the WPA Institutional Program on Psychiatry for the Person (IPPP) and the Health Department of the United Kingdom represented a powerful opportunity for synergism between person-centered care and Britain’s Shared Vision Project. In addition to reviewing and advancing the four core components of the IPPP, initial discussions took place towards delineating a Person-centered Integrative Diagnostic (PID) model as a crucial basis for achieving in due course a psychiatry for the person. The widely perceived need to advance further in this process led to the decision to organize the Paris Conference on Psychiatry for the Person this early February. The city and the professional community that served 58 years ago as geographic and social setting for the birth of WPA, offered auspices to a very special type of conference, clearly focused and intensely interactive, without commercial accompaniments.

Medicine, psychiatry and all the health care disciplines reflect enduring beliefs about health, illness, and the loci of meaning. In every society worldwide, the arts of healing are highly valued and respected. Thus, the training of future health care providers across health professionals merits great resources, whatever they may be. Historic shifts in America’s population demographics combined with significant increases in the birthrates of minority groups born and residing in the U.S. challenge the knowledge and skills of health/behavioral health care providers who are ill prepared through education or experience to diagnose and treat individuals from unfamiliar backgrounds. Frequently, these individuals present with idioms of distress and culturally specific explanations of their origin as well as expectation for treatment and successful resolution. Monumental changes in the ways that health care is now delivered across myriad systems raise questions about how the nation can address the pressing needs of underserved populations, improve access and treatment outcomes and reduce inappropriate use of general medical facilities in an era when cost containment dominates the perspectives of health care providers.

  • Do Psychiatric Diagnoses Explain? a Philosophical Investigation, Submitted By
    Do Psychiatric Diagnoses Explain? A Philosophical Investigation by Hane Htut Maung MA (Cantab), MB BChir, MPhil, MRCPsych Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2016 1 Abstract Do Psychiatric Diagnoses Explain? A Philosophical Investigation, submitted by Hane Htut Maung for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, December 2016 This thesis is a philosophical examination of the explanatory roles of diagnoses in psychiatry. In medicine, diagnoses normally serve as causal explanations of patients’ symptoms. Given that psychiatry is a discipline whose practice is shaped by medical traditions, it is often implied that its diagnoses also serve such explanatory functions. This is evident in clinical texts that portray psychiatric diagnoses as referring to diseases that cause symptoms. However, there are problems which cast doubt on whether such portrayals are justified. I address these problems and examine whether psychiatric diagnoses provide explanations of symptoms. The first problem is conceptual. In diagnostic manuals, psychiatric diagnoses are defined by their symptoms. This suggests that invoking them as explanations of the symptoms amounts to circularity. I argue that this can be resolved with an appropriate conceptual framework that captures the complex semantic values of diagnostic terms and their different uses in clinical discourse. I put forward such a framework based on two-dimensional semantics. The second problem is ontological. Empirical research suggests that diagnostic categories in psychiatry do not correspond to invariant causal types, but are associated with variable combinations of diverse causes that interact across biological, psychological, and social levels. Given this heterogeneity, I argue that psychiatric diagnoses fall short of paradigmatic cases of causal explanation, but that some can still provide other sorts of useful causal explanatory information.
