NCE National Counseling Exam Questions And Answers (Verified Answers)

Question Number 409


✔ Correct Answer:
Several changes were made to the newest version of the DSM. One of these changes is the reliance on DIMENSIONAL ASSESSMENT rather than descriptions of disorders that are based on categories. Clients' experiences are now assessed for SEVERITY, FREQUENCY, and DURATION rather than whether or not a particular symptom is present. The DSM-5 eliminated the multi-axial system and does not include extensive descriptions of different therapy modalities. ICD-10 classification codes are included in the DSM-5, but clinicians using the DSM-5 do not rely on them.
