The process of psychiatric diagnosis has recently undergone major revision with the appearance of DSM III. The present article is an effort to acquaint school personnel with the new system of multiaxial diagnoses in relation to existing special education categories. Use of DSM III in reference to special education categories is illustrated with data on 40 children admitted to a psychiatric hospital school.
