    • Abstract:
      The DSM-5, published by the American Psychiatric Association, provides detailed information about mental disorders, including information about diagnostic features, associated features supporting diagnosis, prevalence, development and course, risk and prognostic factors, functional consequences, differential diagnosis, and co-morbidity. For many disorders, the DSM-5 also includes information on culture- and gender-related diagnostic issues, suicide risk, and specifiers such as "with poor insight." [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
