Explanation: The DSM, which is called the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of mental disorder was developed from data collected by psychiatric hospitals and census. However the first Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for mental disorder mainly evolved from the classification system devolved by the U. So army and Veterans' Administration to treat soldiers affected during the second world War. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for mental disorder is now being adopted by psychiatric drug regulation agencies, pharmaceutical companies, health insurance companies and so on.
