Abstract

When a medical student is learning psychiatric semiology and nosology, he is sometimes like a stranger in a strange land. Heterogeneous use of references in the symptomatic description of the disorder and in the nosographic classifications is problematic from a pedagogical point of view because it can be confusing for the student. This article proposes a minimal nosography of mental disorders in adults for a medical student. Nosological diagnostic approach in psychiatry will be presented to then be adapted to the principal mental disorders in adults. Synthetic support cards with decision trees will be proposed.
