In this lecture, we will review the foundations of Abnormal Psychology and how it may differ from Clinical Psychology. • The term abnormal is the subject of considerable debate. What exactly is normal and who gets to decide? The social norms that are often used to determine what is normal versus abnormal can shift over time, so settling on a standard definition isn't simple or straightforward (verywellmind.com). • What Is Abnormal Psychology? Abnormal psychology focuses on the patterns of emotion, thought, and behavior that can be signs of a mental health condition. Rather than the distinction between normal and abnormal, psychologists in this field focus on the level of distress that behaviors, thoughts, or emotions might cause. If a behavior is creating problems in a person's life or is disruptive to other people, then this would be an abnormal behavior. In such cases, the behavior may require some type of mental health intervention. • I am open to additional lecture title suggestions… so if you have a topic in mind, send me your request. • Click HERE to Sign up for Psychology Courses for Real Life at Bev Knox Institute. 100% Online: http://www.BevKnox.com • Order an autographed copy from Bev: http://www.TheMysteryElement.com • Support this Channel at PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/drbevknox • Professional Services Contact: [email protected]
