title: [Reference tables for representation of ICD-10 diagnoses in DSM-IV].
abstract: Proceeding from the Clinical Descriptions and Diagnostic Guidelines of the ICD-10, a table of reference to DSM-IV is presented for mental disorders. Emphasis is placed upon childhood and adolescent mental disorder pictures. Allowance is made in the corresponding notes for greater content differences in the operationalization of individual disorder pictures. However, the table can only serve as a pointer to diagnoses in DSM-IV that correspond to those in ICD-10. In the interests of greater diagnostic security, these should be checked in individual cases against the diagnostic criteria. In the forefront certain theoretical considerations with regard to the comparison of the two classification systems are illustrated by means of selected disorder pictures.
