DSM-IV-TR (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders)  / 
Manuel diagnostique et statistique des troubles mentaux

 

The DSM is the major reference tool in North America used to diagnose mental health disorders. The DSM is intended for use in clinical settings by a wide range of health and mental health professionals, including psychiatrists, primary care physicians and others. For each disorder, the DSM lists specific criteria for making a diagnosis. A French language version is available for purchase.

 

The fourth and most recent edition is the DSM-IV-TR; the DSM-V is expected in 2012. This resource is published by the American Psychiatric Association and is made available on-line to subscribers by Psychiatry On-line

 

Health care providers in Ontario have free access to the French language version of the DSM at the CAMH library. Please call 416-595-6144 or contact the library by email at library@camh.net.
