Abnormal Psychology Normality/Abnormality Mental Health Criteria Learning Outcome: Examine the concepts of normality and abnormality. Discuss validity and reliability in diagnosis. Success Criteria: Use of DSM and other avenues to define normality and identify mental disorders.

Review Normality Research in normality/abnormality Many ways to define normal Research in normality/abnormality Rosenhan & Seligman (1984) Seven criteria used to decide whether a person or behaviour is normal or not Suffering (individual living) Maladaptiveness (individual living) Irrationality (individual living) Unpredictability (individual living) Vividness & Unconventionality (social judgment) Observer discomfort (social norms) Violation of moral or ideal standards (social norms)

Evaluation Write down a few ideas of potential issues with the 7 criteria to define normality Write your answers below this line:

Mental Health Criteria Jahoda (1958) Established abnormal by defining characteristics of normal behaviour Efficient self perception Realistic self esteem & acceptance Voluntary control of behaviour True perception of the world Sustaining relationships & giving affection Self-direction & productivity What do these mean?

Evaluation of Mental Health Criteria While we can agree on what makes physiological health, we have a harder time with psychological health. Discuss the following question with a small group: How do we determine what is psychologically normal?

Look at the Biological (Medical) Model According to this model, what are the origins of abnormal behaviour? Use of psychopathology (observed symptoms of a patient) to determine treatment What is the type of treatment with this model? Evaluate this model. What are the weaknesses?

Lets look at the ib handout Abnormal Psychology

Snooki DSM-IV (soon to be V) Diagnostic & Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Handbook used by psychiatrists in the US to identify and classify symptoms of psychiatric disorders See handout on Classification of Mental Disorders Snooki
