For Unit 1 IP, consider changes that have been made from the DSM-IV to the DSM-5. Focus on Chapter 3, pp. 89-93 to explore these changes and how they affect diagnosis, both positively and negatively. The M.U.S.E. resource "The Changes From DSM-IV to DSM-5" also describes some of these changes. This link is also a good resource: https://www.dsm5.org/Documents/changes%20from%20dsm-iv-tr%20to%20dsm-5.pdf.
