10585Imagine that you are a well-known blogger. You like to create blogs that are designed to educate your readers about
abnormal psychology. For this assignment, you will write your next blog.
In your blog posting, please cover the following.
Introduce Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), along with at least two other diagnostic tools.
Remember that your readers have never heard of DSM-5, so you need to explain in your own words how this manual is
used. Introduce and explain the topic of cultural competency to your readers so that they know how psychology aims to be inclusive and account for cultural differences.
Your blog post should be compiled in a Word document. Feel free to be creative by adding graphics, charts, etc. to your
post. It should be at least two pages in length. Please include an introduction page. The reference page
does not count towards the total page requirement for this assignment. You should utilize one source from the Waldorf
Online Library and your textbook for this assignment.
