Clinicians can utilise a systematic interviewing strategy described in the manual to arrive at a diagnosis for DSM. They respond to questions that are posed objectively about the person's perceptible behaviours on five different levels, or axes.

The classification has a satisfactory level of reliability. In collaboration with the International Classification of Diseases, DSM diagnoses are created (ICD). Diagnostic labels, according to DSM-IV detractors, can stigmatise a person by skewing how others interpret and perceive their past and present activities as well as how they are perceived by others. The advantages of diagnostic labels are that they facilitate communication between mental health practitioners regarding treatment and therapy and that they create a common language for thought-sharing among researchers looking into the causes and therapies of diseases.
