The
Operationalized Psychodynamic Diagnosis (OPD) is a multiaxial
psychodynamic diagnostic system that has become a widely
accepted standard in psychodynamic diagnostics for clinical practice and
research in many countries. Numerous empirical studies have
demonstrated the validity of OPD findings.

Through its
clear operationalization of essential components of psychodynamic
models - subjective experiences of illness and treatment ideas,
problematic relationship patterns, intrapsychic conflicts, and
personality functioning (i.e., structural integration) - the OPD
enables reliable assessment, which is further aided by a wealth of
case examples and working materials. The OPD-3 is organized in four
axes:



Axis I: Mental Disorders, Experience of Illness, and Prerequisites for Treatment
Axis II: Interpersonal relations
Axis III: Conflict
Axis IV: Structure

New in OPD-3:

All
axes have been further refined with a stronger emphasis on
dimensionally-oriented assessment. The dynamic interplay of the
axes, especially between conflict and structure, is represented
with greater differentiation. Since the OPD is based on a
semi-standardized, clinically-oriented interview, this manual is
equally suitable for both research and clinical practice. It is
an indispensable companion for choosing the most fitting diagnostic
tests, determining the focus of treatment, and therapy planning.
