DSM-5-TR: A Broad Selection of Exercises to Measure Your Psychiatry Knowledge is a self-test workbook built to help students and clinicians master DSM-5-TR diagnostic criteria through active recall and applied practice.
Organized to follow the structure of the diagnostic manual, it moves from DSM-5 fundamentals through the major diagnostic categories: neurodevelopmental; schizophrenia spectrum and other psychotic; bipolar and related; depressive; anxiety; obsessive-compulsive and related; trauma- and stressor-related; somatic symptom; feeding and eating; elimination; sleep-wake; sexual dysfunction and gender dysphoria; disruptive, impulse-control, and conduct; substance-related and addictive; neurocognitive; and personality disorders. It closes with culture-bound syndromes and conditions for further study.
Each section uses a mix of question formats, including multiple choice, true/false, and clinical case vignettes, with an answer key and rationales so learners can check their reasoning, not just their recall. The format supports diagnostic fluency for coursework and for board and licensing review, including the NCLEX, USMLE Step 1, NCE, NCMHCE, EPPP, PANCE, and PMHNP exams, and it serves students and practitioners across psychiatry, psychology, counseling, social work, nursing, occupational therapy, and physician assistant programs.
