Abstract: Many criticisms accompanied the development of the fifth edition of the "Diagnostic and Statistical Manual" ("DSM-5"), yet it was still released in 2013 and is used within clinical work throughout the United States. Despite on-going questions pertaining to its development and validity, many undergraduate psychology students view the "DSM-5" as the ultimate authority in diagnosis within the field of mental health. Current publication trends indicate that a focus on the "DSM-5" within college textbooks is limited in scope, which may have a profound influence on students' understanding of mental health conditions. Implications for the teaching of psychology within higher education are discussed.
