, d. NurseOne online
ANS: B
The first Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) was published by
the American Psychiatric Association in 1952. Its purpose was to provide clinicians,
educators, and researchers with a common framework to understand and communicate
about mental disorders. With a common understanding about mental disorders, researchers
and clinicians could work together in their attempts to improve care for people with mental
illness. The current DSM-5 serves as the official guide for diagnosing psychiatric
disorders. The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) sets the global health
information standard for mortality and morbidity statistics. Clinicians and researchers use
this classification system to define diseases, study disease patterns, monitor outcomes, and
subsequently allocate resources based on the prevalence of disease. The Canadian Institute
for Health Information developed an enhanced version of the previous version, ICD-10
referred to as the ICD 10-CA period that version extends beyond defining and classifying
diseases to describe conditions and situations that are not diseases, including for example,
risk factors to health and psychosocial circumstances. A behavioral health reference
manual and NurseOne online are not used as official guides for diagnosis.

4. When locating the description and diagnostic criteria for anxiety disorders, which resource
would have the most complete information?
a. Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC)
b. Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5)
c. The ANA’s Psychiatric-Mental Health Nursing Scope and Standards of Practice
d. International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems
(ICD-10)
ANS: B
The DSM-5 details the diagnostic criteria for psychiatric clinical conditions and is the
official guide for diagnosing psychiatric disorders. The other references are good resources
but do not define the diagnostic criteria.

5. Which individual is demonstrating the highest level of resilience?
a. An individual repressing their stressors who is having a difficult time coping with
activities of daily living (ADLs)
b. An individual who is in a depressed state after the death of their spouse
c. An individual who lives in a shelter for 2 years after their home is destroyed by a
fire
d. An individual who navigates and negotiates resources to support their well-being
