Gareth O’Callaghan breakfast show on 4FM this morning, having a chat about the Masters I’m doing in Cyberpsychology. Listen to the (4 mins) podcast here.
Apologies to all psychologists and cyberpsychologists everywhere if I let you down! And I think I stand corrected – the body that decides what’s an illness last met in 2008 not 1998.

Well done Maryrose – really excellent interview.
The organisation is the American Psychiatric Association, and they publish the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM). This is currently on its 4th edition (with a text revision) – so its DSM-IV-TR. The 4th edition was published in 1994. DSM-V is due in 2012. Information about this is available at http://www.psych.org/MainMenu/Research/DSMIV/DSMV.aspx
