Who publishes the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders - 5th edition (DSM-5)?

  1. American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists

  2. American Psychiatric Association

  3. ASCO/NCCN

  4. American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists

The correct answer is: American Psychiatric Association

The DSM-5 is published by the American Psychiatric Association. The other options are incorrect because - The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists primarily focuses on women's reproductive health, and would not be the appropriate organization to publish a manual on mental disorders. - ASCO/NCCN refers to the American Society of Clinical Oncology and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network, both of which are focused on cancer care and would not publish a manual on mental disorders. - The American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists focuses on endocrine disorders, and would not be the appropriate organization to publish a manual on mental disorders.
