Course Description:
This course explores how "abnormal" behavior is defined and assessed, and
focuses on the epidemiology, etiology (causes), and diagnostic criteria for
a range of psychological disorders (e.g., depression, substance abuse,
eating disorders, personality disorders), as well as biopsychosocial
treatments for these disorders. Students also are introduced to
controversial issues in the field. |
