How do I cite a page in the DSM?

I want to cite the page in the DSM that provides aspd (antisocial personality disorder) criteria. 

Answer

You would cite the section of the DSM-5 that provides the criteria for antisocial personality disorder like this:

American Psychiatric Association. (2013). Antisocial personality disorder. In Diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders (5th ed.). https://doi.org/10.1176/appi.books.9781585625048.gg69


If you need to cite another section of the DSM 5, just follow this basic format:

American Psychiatric Association. (2013). Section title. In Diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders (5th ed.). Section DOI [as hyperlink beginning with "https://"]
