Psychologists and psychiatrists look forward to 2013 trepidation, thanks to the upcoming publication of the revised Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 5 (DSM-5). Frank Farley, a psychologist at Temple’s College of Education, agreed that a number of professionals were skeptical about the science that went it. "Looking to 2013, an international movement has arisen toward re-conceptualizing diagnosis from the ground up, and I look forward to progress on this important topic," Farley said.
