One reason the RDoC was created was in response to the criticism that the biopsychosocial factors that appear to cause psychopathology do not map neatly onto individual DSM diagnoses. 4. A new system called the Research Domain Criteria Project (RDoC) is an initiative that aims to guide the classification and understanding of mental disorders by revealing the basic processes that give rise to them. 5. The long-term goal of the RDoC is to better understand which abnormalities cause different disorders and to classify disorders based on those underlying causes, rather than on observed symptoms, which will bring the study of mental disorders in line with the study of other medical disorders.
