“…Such case studies were introduced as a regular feature of the journal Culture, Medicine and Psychiatry over more than two decades (Lewis-Fernandez, 1996). Many of these and comparable case studies published in other journals show how culture contributes to diagnosis and case management (Ba¨a¨rnhielm, 2012;Ba¨a¨rnhielm & Scarpinati Rosso, 2009;Bucardo, Patterson, & Jeste, 2008;Shore & Manson, 2004;Browne, 2001;Yilmaz & Weiss, 2000;O'Nell, 1998;Barrett, 1997;Lim & Lin, 1996;Manson, 1996). The presentation of these case reports is typically structured according to the five domains of the OCF presented in the DSM-IV (APA, 1994), concluding with a summary of the contributions of the cultural formulation to diagnosis and clinical management in domain V. The wording for these domains was modified slightly, but without altering the underlying framework, in an update of the OCF in DSM-5 (APA, 2013).…”
