Preface Behavioral science is an extremely high-yield, yet often overlooked, subject on the USMLE Step 1. Understanding important behavioral science concepts and being able to apply them to test questions can significantly increase your score. Deja Review: Behavioral Sciences is the perfect format to study behavioral science material; it helps you rapidly review material you know as well as fill-in gaps in your knowledge. In this second edition of Deja Review: Behavioral Sciences I have highlighted high-yield concepts such as psychiatric disorders and developmental milestones while still keeping the content comprehensive enough to use during your preclinical course and clerkship. Epidemiology and biostatistics are often tested on the USMLE—this new edition has fully revised and expanded sections on these subjects that will review and teach you core concepts needed to work through epidemiology questions on the USMLE. With a little bit of work and Deja Review: Behavioral Sciences, you’ll be well-prepared for the multitude of behavioral science questions on the USMLE. ORGANIZATION All concepts are presented in a question and answer “flashcard” format that covers key facts on commonly tested topics in behavioral medicine. Behavioral science is often conceptual, and questions are designed to review and teach these concepts instead of simply memorizing material. The question and answer format has several important advantages: • It provides a rapid, straightforward way for you to assess your strengths and weaknesses. • It serves as a quick, last-minute review of high-yield facts. • It allows you to efficiently review and commit to memory a large body of information. At the end of each chapter, you will find clinical vignettes that expose you to the type of questions classically tested on the USMLE Step 1. These board-style questions put the basic science into a clinical context, allowing you apply the facts you have just reviewed in a clinical scenario and make the diagnosis. HOW TO USE THIS BOOK This text was assembled with the intent to represent the core topics tested on course examinations and USMLE Step 1. Remember, this text is not intended to replace comprehensive textbooks, course packs, or lectures. However, it may serve as a supplement
xiv Preface to your studies during your coursework and Step 1 preparation. You may use the book to quiz yourself or classmates on topics covered in recent lectures and clinical case discussions. A bookmark is included so that you can easily cover up the answers as you work through each chapter. The compact, condensed design of the book is conducive to studying on the go, especially during any downtime throughout your busy day. However you choose to study, I hope you find this resource helpful throughout your preparation. Good luck and good studying! Gene R. Quinn
