various psychotic disorders in DSM-5 should allow inter-digitation with
the Research Domain Criteria initiative (Insel et al., 2010). The changes

draft version of ICD-11). The revisions in DSM-5 criteria for schizophrenia
should make them more useful to patients, clinicians, researchers,
and society at large.
