El DSM se caracteriza por su falta de credibilidad científica y confiabilidad nula. En abril de 2005 un estudio publicado en Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics determinó que tiene nexos financieros

December 28, 2006 (Press Release) -- - Uno de los programas de “pruebas de salud mental” que se recomiendan a las escuelas se
llama “TeenScreen™”. El doctor David Shaffer, el psiquiatra que lo desarrolló, admitió que el uso de este método podría significar que 84 adolescentes que no mostraran tendencias suicidas podrían ser canalizados para una evaluación posterior por cada 16 chicos “correctamente identificados”. Kelly Patricia O’Meara, periodista que anteriormente fue empleada parlamentaria, advierte: “¿Desde cuando un error estadístico del 84% equivale a una prueba científica confiable?”. En otras palabras, basándose en el estudio de Shaffer de su propia prueba, 84 de cada 100 estudiantes serán identificados incorrectamente de padecer una enfermedad mental específica. Uno se pregunta si se les informa a los padres de familia estadounidenses de esta sorprendente estadística como parte de la información a considerar cuando tienen que decidir si permitirá o no la aplicación de las pruebas de salud mental.

- Las preguntas subjetivas de TeenScreen incluyen: “¿Ha habido alguna vez en tu vida un momento en que nada te agradaba y simplemente no estabas interesado en nada?”. y “¿Alguna vez has sentido que no podías hacer nada bien, que no te veías tan bien o que no eras tan listo como otros?”. Basándose en el resultado, se usa otro cuestionario para encontrar dieciocho trastornos psiquiátricos, basado en el Manual Diagnóstico y Estadístico de los Trastornos Mentales (DSM).

- El DSM se caracteriza por su falta de credibilidad científica y confiabilidad nula. En abril de 2005 un estudio publicado en Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics también determinó que había nexos financieros ocultos entre las empresas farmacéuticas y los psiquiatras involucrados en votación sobre qué “trastornos mentales” deberían incluirse en el DSM. Los investigadores Lisa Cosgrove, psicóloga de la Universidad de Massachussets y Sheldon Krimsky, profesor de la Universidad de Tuft, encontraron que las empresas farmacéuticas financiaban al 100% de los psiquiatras involucrados en los paneles que determinaron los “trastornos de ánimo”, “depresión” y “trastornos psicóticos”, los cuales representan ventas de psicofármacos por más de 20 mil millones de dólares. Las compañías farmacéuticas también financian las pruebas TeenScreen para los estudiantes.
