	::It depends on how you define "statistics". Normally one would expect, when someone refers to "statistics," that what is meant is tables, with sample sizes, percentages etc. The DSM (I just did a quick search of DSM-5 for the term "statistic") does not appear to include any such tables. It ''does'' include the term "statistical codes," which is simply part of the nomenclature they use. The quote was from somebody who should know what he was talking about--but I don't remember who said it. My bad. I didn't know I was going to quote him in an article here. If you want your own copy of the DSM-5 perhaps it could be arranged... [[User:User4\|User4]] ([[User talk:User4\|talk]]) 17:16, 2 May 2016 (UTC)		::It depends on how you define "statistics".

	:::I removed that statement and replaced it with one I could source... We can re-add the other one when we find a source. I looked and I could not find one. That is not to say it doesn't exist, simply that you are better at finding these things then me. --[[Etenne]] [[File:BLSmileyface.png\|50 px\|link=Etenne]] 17:20, 2 May 2016 (UTC)		:::I removed that statement and replaced it with one I could source...

			:::: I just searched the DSM-5 again, and--yes--it does make a few references to some statistics, for example:
			:::: * "Fifty percent of “postpartum” major depressive episodes actually begin prior to delivery."
			:::: ... so perhaps the person I quoted was referring to an earlier version. I don't know.
			:::: It could be stated that the DSM-5 contains very few statistics. That is a true statement. [[User:User4\|User4]] ([[User talk:User4\|talk]]) 17:32, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
