Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hysteria was a term commonly used during Freud's era to describe a group of symptoms that did not have an apparent physical cause, but rather a psychological one. Today, the term conversion disorder is used to describe these cases. The prevalence of conversion disorder has not necessarily increased since Freud's time, but rather the understanding and diagnosis of these cases have improved. Additionally, the term "hysteria" has fallen out of favor in modern psychiatric practice.
