Thesis (M.S.W.)--Carleton University (Canada), 2013.

The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual ( DSM) is the main text used in North America to diagnose individuals with mental disorders. Although various researchers have explored the DSM's relationship to social work practice in the United States, no previous research has explored this relationship within the Canadian context. For this exploratory study, semi-structured interviews were conducted with ten mental health social workers in Ontario. Through a thematic analysis of these interviews, four themes were identified that describe the ways that participants used the DSM and their views towards it. These themes illustrate that the DSM had an inconsistent impact on participants' practice, and that participants held mainly critical perspectives toward the manual. The connection of these findings to previous research and literature and their practical and theoretical applications will be discussed along with the current study's limitations and suggestions for future research.
