Create a Trauma and Stressor-Related Disorders Chart

Instructions

Background

There are many different possible outcomes for an individual who has experienced trauma. The DSM-5-TR has a chapter titled “Trauma- and StressorRelated Disorders.” There are eight in total, beginning with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) and ending with Unspecified Trauma- and Stressor-Related Disorder (2022). Each disorder sub-section includes diagnostic features, prevalence, risk, and prognostic factors, differential disorders related to the main diagnosis, and a plethora of scholarly resources. Specifically, pay close attention to each subsection that is titled “Culture-Related Diagnostic Issues.”

Instructions

Using the DSM-5-TR, you will create a 5-column chart that lists each disorder found in this chapter, a brief summary of the diagnostic features, the prevalence, and possible differential disorders. Please paraphrase using your own words.

After creating the chart, pick one of the disorders and discuss it using a culturally competent perspective. Please submit this summary following the chart. Remember that cultural competence is an ability to empathize and communicate/interact effectively with all populations, no matter the culture (Frisby et al., 2013). For example, the trauma of COVID-19 is affecting minorities and those of lower socioeconomic status disproportionally (U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2020), with many developing post-traumatic stress disorder (Kira et al., 2020). Be sure your summary addresses the following:

• Include an introduction.
• Identify the population (i.e., the culture you have chosen to focus on, giving some statistics and characteristics).
• Describe how this population has been identified as at-risk for a disorder listed in your chart, and then explain why.
• Provide some possible interventions for someone treating this individual (remember Lesson 1).
• Provide a conclusion.

Note: Remember to use scholarly resources to support your content. Hint There are many in the chapter of the DSM-5-TR that you are using for your chart.

An example of the chart is below with the first disorder done for you.
