“…Focussing on the positive diagnoses, the DSM-IV-TR consistently classified more children with an anxiety disorder than the ICD-10 for SAD, GAD, social and specific phobia. Results are comparable to previous studies comparing ICD-10 and DSM-IV diagnoses of mental disorders in children and adolescents [14,16]. …”

“…Steinberger and Schuch [14] examined the diagnostic concordance for 66 children with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) using semi-structured instruments, the International Diagnostic Checklists for DSM-IV and ICD-10 IDCL, [15]. They found evidence of poor agreement between the two classification systems.…”

“…While DSM-IV identified both children and adolescents with an OCD diagnosis, ICD-10 particularly diagnosed adolescents. Since the ICD-10 displayed an age-dependent concept of OCD, Steinberger and Schuch [14] argued that the DSM-IV criteria diagnosing OCD in childhood are superior to those of the ICD-10 . Sorenson, Mors, and Thomsen [16] compared the two systems focusing on major depressive disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and oppositional defiant disorder in a sample of 199 child psychiatric patients.…”

“…More specifically, results of Sorenson et al [16] and Steinberger et al [14] provide preliminary evidence that the DSM diagnoses more children with a mental disorder than the ICD-10 . However, to our knowledge, no study focusing on anxiety disorders, apart from OCD, in children and adolescents has been conducted so far.…”

BackgroundMental disorders are classified by two major nosological systems, the ICD-10 and the DSM-IV-TR, consisting of different diagnostic criteria. The present study investigated the diagnostic concordance between the two systems for anxiety disorders in childhood and adolescence, in particular for separation anxiety disorder (SAD), specific phobia, social phobia, and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD).MethodsA structured clinical interview, the Kinder-DIPS, was administered to 210 children and 258 parents. The percentage of agreement, kappa, and Yule’s Y coefficients were calculated for all diagnoses. Specific criteria causing discrepancies between the two classification systems were identified.ResultsDSM-IV-TR consistently classified more children than ICD-10 with an anxiety disorder, with a higher concordance between DSM-IV-TR and the ICD-10 child section (F9) than with the adult section (F4) of the ICD-10. This result was found for all four investigated anxiety disorders. The results revealed low to high levels of concordance and poor to good agreement between the classification systems, depending on the anxiety disorder.ConclusionsThe two classification systems identify different children with an anxiety disorder. However, it remains an open question, whether the research results can be generalized to clinical practice since DSM-IV-TR is mainly used in research while ICD-10 is widely established in clinical practice in Europe. Therefore, the population investigated by the DSM (research population) is not identical with the population examined using the ICD (clinical population).

“…Establishing a diagnosis of OCD can be done using the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4 th edition (APA, 1994), known as the DSM‐IV, and the International Statistical Classification of Diseases, 10 th edition (World Health Organization [WHO], 1992), known as the ICD‐10. Steinberger and Schuch (2002) compared the suitability of the DSM‐IV and ICD‐10 diagnostic criteria in a clinical sample of children and adolescents with OCD. The authors found a poor agreement between the diagnostic concepts of the DSM‐IV and ICD‐10.…”
