Emotional Manifestations
The term emotional manifestation refers to the changes in the patient’s feelings or overt behavior directly attributable to his or her feeling states.
In assessing emotional manifestations, it is important to take into account the individual’s premorbid mood level and behavior, as well as what the examiner might consider the normal range in the patient’s particular age, sex, and social group.
The occurrence of frequent crying spells in a patient who rarely or never cried before becoming depressed might indicate a greater level of depression that it would in a patient who habitually cried whether depressed or not.
