Summary

Nine raters applied ICD-10 diagnoses on 36 Danish child and adolescent psychiatric patients by screening their case records and using the DCR of ICD-10. The highest inter-rater agreement was obtained In the group of adolescent patients, the lowest was observed in emotional disorders in children. The comments on ICD-10 were generally positive but we support the creation of a category for the borderline children, and for the non-hyperactive children with attention deficit disorder.
