The question is incomplete as written because it does not list any specific statements to evaluate.
Key facts about the DSM
- The DSM (currently DSM‑5‑TR) is published by the American Psychiatric Association, not by the World Health Organization.
- It is not the only diagnostic system; the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) is another widely used system for mental and medical disorders.
Common exam-style true statements
- The DSM has been revised multiple times since its first edition in 1952 (DSM‑I, II, III, III‑R, IV, IV‑TR, 5, 5‑TR), so any statement saying it was “revised once” is false.
- DSM‑5 was the product of a long, multi‑year revision process involving many experts; exam items often describe this as roughly a 14‑year revision process, which is considered true in that context.
If you paste the specific answer choices (A, B, C, D, etc.), the true ones can be identified directly.
