Dear Dr. Kupfer:
We urge you to consider the role of Social Work professionals in the provision of mental health
services in the United States and in the development of the upcoming Diagnostic and Statistical
Manual of Mental Disorders, DSM-V.
As stated by the National Association of Social Workers (NASW) Executive Director Elizabeth J.
Clark, the DSM is widely used by social workers. Social workers are one of the largest providers of
mental health services in the United States.
We ask you to consider the voices of social work providers, represented here by the signatures of
attendees at the annual conference of the New Jersey chapter of the National Association of Social
Workers. Please consider our request for an active role in the development of the DSM-5.
Sincerely,
Who are the providers? Which is the largest provider
discipline? …
social workers
psychiatrists
psychologists

The Primacy of Social Work
Social workers provide most of the country’s mental health
services. Of mental health professionals …
45% -- social work
5% -- psychiatry
17% -- psychology
24% -- counseling
9% -- marriage and family therapy
Both social work and psychology have grown in number of trained
mental health professionals in recent years, while psychiatry has
remained stable.
(Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, 2012).
Where did you learn about DSM – classroom,
practicum?
How did you learn about the DSM - from social
workers? from psychologists? psychiatrists?
Quality of learning?
How should students be prepared regarding DSM?
….
What are the strengths and limitations of DSM? ….
Authority to diagnose …. Licensure of educators…
Knowledge regarding DSM-5 …
DSM Views: What do you know about NIMH?
As an indicator of their involvement and interest in the
development of DSM-5, participants were asked if they were
aware of current efforts by NIMH (National Institutes of
Mental Health) with regard to classification systems and, if
so, to indicate their understanding. A quarter (26%) of the
respondents affirmed that they were aware, but only 4
statements were accurate (i.e., focus on brain research,
biomarker identification, NIMH has developed strategic
planning around creating new ways to classify and diagnose
mental disorders, revising to include neuroscience advances).
Most mistakenly believed that NIMH and the APA the same
organization.

DSM Views: What do you know about NIMH?
NIMH director Thomas Insel noted in The Director’s Blog on the NIMH
website (2010) that The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental
Disorders has validity problems and, furthermore, that “The Research
Domain Criteria (RDoC) is an initiative that will develop neurosciencebased criteria for classifying mental disorders” (para. 4).
In 2013, Insel, stated:
“That is why NIMH will be re-orienting its research away from DSM
categories. Going forward, we will be supporting research projects that
look across current categories – or sub-divide current categories – to begin
to develop a better system. What does this mean for applicants? Clinical
trials might study all patients in a mood clinic rather than those meeting
strict major depressive disorder criteria. What does this mean for patients?
We are committed to new and better treatments, but we feel this will only
happen by developing a more precise diagnostic system. The best reason
to develop RDoC is to seek better outcomes.”

Impact of personal experiences with mental illness …
Summary of Educator Views
Overall, the study participants, social work educators, were licensed clinical
professionals, live in states where social work has authority to diagnose, and favored a
state level license for all social work educators and a clinical license for those who
teach direct practice. They voiced support of all professions named-social work,
psychology, and psychiatry-to diagnose. They favored retaining the DSM as it is but
preferred that the Social Work profession have a role in developing and updating DSM.
They favored incorporation of the strengths perspective and do not believe that DSM is
sensitive to person-in-environment and family-in-environment perspectives. However,
they agreed that even with its strengths and limitations, students are capable of
understanding those nuances of DSM. They noted regard for DSM as an essential tool
and a good fit for Social Work practice.
They favored altering thresholds such that fewer people would be eligible for a DSM
diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and for Autism. In addition, they
would like to retain the grief exclusion under major depressive disorder.
They expressed the belief that mental health content should include some DSM content
at both BSW and MSW levels and noted, in fact, that this is true at their own schools;
most favored giving a basic understanding at the BSW level and teaching to formulate
a diagnosis at the MSW and doctoral levels.

Despite the fact that Social Work was not represented on the
DSM Task Force (as it had been in the past), there are signs
of ……….. good news.
Contributing psychosocial and environmental factors
(previous Axis IV), client person-in-environment, and
family-in-environment are now represented in part by:
Z-codes and Cultural Formulation Interview
16
ICD-10 Z-Codes
Contributing psychosocial and environmental factors or other reasons
for visits are now represented through an expanded selected set of ICD9-CM V-codes and, from the forthcoming ICD-10-CM, Z-codes.
These provide ways for clinicians to indicate other conditions or
problems that may be a focus of clinical attention or otherwise affect
the diagnosis, course, prognosis, or treatment of a mental disorder.
These conditions may be coded along with the patient’s mental and
other medical disorders if they are a focus of the current visit or help to
explain the need for a treatment or test.
Z-codes include family upbringing, child and adult maltreatment and
neglect, and educational, occupational, and housing problems.

37
Social work did not hold a key decision-making role in the
publication of DSM-5, yet there appears to be a presence of social
work themes that exceeds that of earlier editions.
Within DSM-5, attention to strengths are not now incorporated
within the diagnostic categories themselves, but do appear in the
form of the enhanced Z Codes, the Cultural Formulation Interview
(in section III – emerging measures and models), and the efforts to
incorporate global themes and models, such as WHODAS (World
Health Organization’s Disability Assessment Schedule).
Social work values are reflected in the elegance of a bio-psychsocio-cultural perspective.
38
Social work’s primacy in mental
health may indeed be enhanced
given the need for a bio-psychsocio-cultural perspective.
