A
Compared to the ICD-9 diagnoses, the DSM-IV provides a clearer view of an individual's situation. The DSM-IV uses a multiaxial system that allows development and other disorders to be considered along with psychiatric diagnoses of more recent onset. The axial system facilitates comprehensive evaluation and provides a format for organizing clinical information and for describing the unique character of a client's condition.
