Probably you've already noticed that if you explode a term in EBSCO's PsycInfo, it only explodes down by one level. In other words, if your term's narrower terms have any narrower terms, those grandchildren will not be included in the explosion.
This is a real pain when you're trying to find information about all mental disorders. You've gotta chase down every last narrower term and add it to your search.
It's time consuming, and of course particularly galling because it's not a problem in any other database.
However, if I save and re-use the full explosion of Mental Disorders, what if APA decides to add another narrower term to the list between when I saved it and when I use it? Potential for missing something of importance.
However, life is short and work is plentiful. I'm darned if I'm doing this over and over.
So, here is the complete explosion of Mental Disorders as of June 17, 2014:
