Competing Interests

Drs. Levenson and Sharpe are members of the DSM-5 Somatoform Disorders Work Group. Drs. Stone, LaFrance, and Sharpe are advisers on conversion disorder to the group. However, this article reflects the views of the authors and not necessarily those of the DSM-5 Somatoform Disorders Work Group.
Dr. LaFrance has received research funding from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, the American Epilepsy Society, the Epilepsy Foundation, and the Siravo Foundation, and he receives book royalties from Cambridge University Press. Dr. Freedman has reviewed this editorial and found no evidence of influence from these relationships. The other authors report no financial relationships with commercial interests.
