Title: ●Revised Medical Criteria for Evaluating Mental Disorders (886P) 
Abstract: We proposed to revise the criteria in the Listing of Impairments (the Listing) that we use to evaluate claims for disability benefits where the individual is alleging a mental impairment. The Listing describes, for each of the major body systems, impairments that are considered severe enough to prevent a person from doing any gainful activity. Our proposed revisions will reflect advances in medical knowledge, treatment, and methods of evaluating mental impairments in both adults and children.
