Show, by your actions, that you choose peace over war, freedom over oppression, voice over silence, service over self-interest, respect over advantage, cooperation over competition, action over passivity, diversity over uniformity, and justice over all.

Volunteer for DSM-5 Field Trials

The National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC) has been asked by the Practice Research Network of the American Psychiatric Institute for Research and Education to assist them in letting counselors know about the upcoming field trials for the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5).  Specifically, practicing licensed counselor volunteers are needed to participate in the DSM-5 field trials in clinical settings.

These field trials will focus primarily on the feasibility and clinical utility of the following:

1.     The proposed modifications to the diagnostic criteria for a broad range of disorders in the full range of clinical settings

2.     Cross-cutting and diagnostic-specific dimensional measures that are incorporated into the diagnostic scheme for DSM-5

Practicing counselors interested in volunteering for the DSM-5 field trials must accept at least one new client per month in a setting not governed by an Institutional Review Board (IRB).  Volunteers in the field trials must be willing to participate in an online training that takes approximately two hours.

If you are interested in volunteering for potential participation in DSM-5 field trials, go to http://www.psych.org/dsm5-rcp-fieldtrials<http://cts.vresp.com/c/?NationalBoardforCert/5662728585/5744081428/feeba1de5f>.
