'''The American Psychiatric Association''' is the largest professional body of psychiatrists in the United States, and in the world. It has some 36,000 members as of 2013. The association is the primary party responsible for the publication and distribution of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders ([[DSM]]), which they first published in 1947 for the uniform classification of psychiatric conditions. They are located out of Arlington, VA. The American Psychiatric Association should not be confused with the American Psychological Association, which was founded six decades later.
