Psychologists consider the diagnostic criteria outlined in recognised classification systems, including the DSM-5-TR and ICD, as applicable to the condition being assessed.
The diagnostic formulation is based on multiple sources of information. This may include:
- Developmental and personal history
- Developmental milestones
- Standardised assessment measures
- Clinical observations
- Past and current input from relevant professionals
- Previous assessments
- School reports or academic records
- Work performance evaluations, where applicable
- Other relevant supporting documentation
All available information is considered together to determine whether the relevant diagnostic criteria are met and to inform appropriate recommendations.
Following a diagnosis, recommendations are made in accordance with relevant Irish clinical guidelines and standards applicable to the specific diagnosis, where appropriate.
