DSM-V disorder

choose aDSM-V disorder and a specific population affected by the disorder (e.g., veterans and PTSD;homeless individuals and schizophrenia;teen girls and anorexia; men andborderline personality disorder; children and bipolardisorder,etc.).You can be as broad or asspecific as youd like.

The guidelines for this paper are very broad. As you have the freedom to choose a variety of
diagnoses, students will likely find different materials/research. The main topics that should be
covered are Disorder (introduce the diagnosis, discuss diagnostic criteria and/or clinical
presentations in the population you chose, how/why the disorder affects this group [does it
manifest differ, occur frequently/infrequently, etc.], possible causes) , Treatment , and
Sociocultural or experiential influences (do any specific factors like race, ethnicity, gender, class
or socioeconomic status, stigma, or any events (traumatic events, past or historical trauma, use of
substances, etc.) that may influence the onset/duration/manifestation of or treatment of this
disorder?). You dont need to make your paper flow in that specific order (disorder
treatment influences). Rather, you just want to hit on these topics within your paper.
Please use at least 2 scholarly articles for this presentation. Please write this paper in APA format
(12 pt font, 1 margins, in-text citations, etc.) and create a references page with the various
resources youve used. This paper should be a minimum of 3 pages (you can exceed this if you need
to

more traditional textbook case of the disorder? What factors may contribute to
this?
Prevalence rates
