ABNORMAL PSYCHOLOGY
PSYCHOPATHOLOGY
- Scientific study of psychological disorders
➢ 3 Concepts
• Clinical Description
- Unique combination of behaviors, thoughts and feelings that make up a specific disorder.
- [we based our diagnosis in DSM – V]
- Clinical Judgement, as a practitioner you should know how to diagnose the client
- Clinical Eyes, we tend to be observant to our clients
• Etiology
- Origins and cause which include biological, psychological and social dimensions.
- Biopsychosocial Model, one of the things we used that is etiology or theory when it comes to
knowing what the roots or the cause of a disorders.
• Treatment and Outcome
- Pharmacology, Psychological or combined
- Pharmacology, (medicines, medication for depression etc.)
- Psychological, (therapy or counseling)
» Difference between psychologist and psychiatrist?
- Psychiatrists (Are doctor of medicine, with specialized training in psychiatry and they can
provide medication or can prescribe medication
- Psychologist cannot prescribe medication but focus mostly on psychotherapy or talk therapy.
- Based on research, the best treatment is the combination of both.
➢ Clinical Description
• Presenting Problem
- Why the person came to the clinic
- What are their concerns
• Prevalence
- How many people in the population have the disorder
Example: 1 person out of 100 people have a schizophrenia
• Incidence
- How many new cases occur during a given period.
- How many people in the population
Example: How many people had depression during the pandemic.
• Course
- Individual pattern of a disorder
▪ Chronic – last a long time (Example: Schizophrenia)
▪ Episodic – recover and suffer a recurrence at a later time (Example: mood disorders,
depressive disorders)
▪ Time – limited – it will improve without treatment (distress, depressive symptoms)
• Onset
- Start of the disorder
▪ Acute – begin suddenly (depression due to triggers [anxiety disorder or phobias])

Insidious – develop gradually over an extended period.
Most dangerous and poorer prognosis (Example: schizophrenia)
Prognosis
Anticipated course of a disorder (looking at the history and case formulation of an individual)
“The prognosis is good” – therefore there will have a good outcome
“The prognosis is guarder” – there will be a poor prognosis
PSYCHOLOGICAL DISORDER
A psychological dysfunction within an individual that is associated with distress or
impairment in functioning and a response that is not typical or culturally expected.
Psychological Dysfunction [Internal]
Breakdown in cognitive, emotional, or behavioral functioning
[you are unable to perform your usual action]
Personal Distress
Situation is extremely upsetting
Can’t tolerate by simple coping mechanisms
Atypical or Not Culturally Expected [Deviance]
It deviates from the average (norms)
Violation of social norms
Disability [external are affected]
Impairment in some important areas of life
Danger
To self and others
Not all people who have psychological disorders are dangerous.
MODELS IN EXPLANING ABNORMALITY
Diathesis – Stress Model
Individuals inherit tendencies to express certain traits or behaviors, which may then be
activated under conditions of stress.
Diathesis, inherited tendencies [you are predisposed to have psychological disorders] +
Stress, [stressors] = Disorder
[when you are high in inherited tendencies and even have a low stress, you are predisposed
or predicted to have a disorder.
On the other hand, if you don’t have or have low inherited tendencies and even have a high
stress, there is a possibility that you will not develop a disorder.]
Gene – Environment Correlation Model
Also known as Reciprocal Gene – Environment Model in different references.
Genetic endowment may increase the probability that an individual will experience stressful
life events.
“Influence of Genes”
Even if stress is not present, it is the gene that leads us to stressful situations to have
disorders.
•
-
Neuroscience Model
How the brain works is central to any understanding of our behaviors, emotions, and
cognitive processes.
-
Neurotransmitters
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are the most prescribed antidepressants. They are given
most with people having major depressive disorder.
•
Psychological
•
BioPsychoSocial
❖ How do biological, psychological, and sociocultural factors interact in the development of
complex patterns of abnormal behavior?
- They interact with each other, and they contribute into a specific disorder.
- In studies, it is proven that Anxiety disorders and depression have evidences from
biopsychosocial model.
CLINICAL ASSESSMENT AND DIAGNOSIS
• Clinical Assessment
- Systematic evaluation and measurement of psychological, biological, and social factors in an
individual presenting with a possible psychological disorder
- [looking for different factors, perspective in diagnosing disorder]
▪ Physical examination
- Medical condition
▪ Behavioral assessment
- Direct observation
- Rating scales
▪ Psychological Testing
- Projective test
- Personality inventories
- Intelligence testing
- Neuropsychological testing
➔ Symptoms
- Subjective
- From the client/patient’s perspective
➔ Signs
- Objective
- From the psychologist/psychiatrist
- Can be measured by assessment tools
• Diagnosis
- Process of determining whether the particular problem afflicting the individual meets all
criteria for a psychological disorder, as set forth in the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and
Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, or DSM – 5.

DIAGNOSTIC AND STATISTICAL MANUAL OF MENTAL DISORDERS
(DSM – 5)
» About the DSM – 5
➢ Publish last 2013 by the American Psychiatric Association
➢ Removed the Five – Axis Diagnosis System [because misdiagnosis and overdiagnosis
happens]
➢ Inclusion of new assessment measures
➢ 20 Chapters Describing Mental Disorders (Section II)
➢ Other Specified Disorder
- Clinician records the specific reason a particular client does not meet the criteria for a
specific diagnosis.
➢ Unspecified Disorder
- Clinician cannot specify or choose not to specify
• DSM – 5 – TR
➢ Released on March 2022
➢ Addition of Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD) to Section II – a new disorder for
diagnosis
➢ Someone close to the bereaved person has died within at least 6 months for children and
adolescents, or within at least 12 months for adults.
➢ Prolonged Grief Disorder (Criteria)
» Gain major criticism because…
- This disorder is under trauma and stress related disorders.
- Cannot measure grief [cannot know when to move on or move forward from the death of
someone]
• MENTAL DISORDERS
» Some terms to remember…
➢ Ego Syntonic
- Actions that are aligned/acceptable to the self [“I’m normal, there is nothing wrong with me”
(Example: Personality Disorders, Anorexia Nervosa)].
➢ Ego Dystonic
- Actions that are inconsistent with your ego
- (Example:
- Majority of disorder is ego dystonic
[both ego syntonic and dystonic is rooted in psychoanalysis]
➢ Alloplastic
- Individual attempts to change the environment or situation
- [others should adjust]
➢ Autoplastic
- Changing oneself when confronted by a problem or stressful situation
- [accept the problem and start the change]
➔ NEURODEVELOPMENTAL DISORDERS
- Commonly diagnose during developmental period [usually before child enters grade school
or during grade school
- Cannot diagnose a child until they can interact with people.
• Intellectual Disability (Intellectual Developmental Disorder)
- The following three criteria must be met:
A. Deficits in intellectual functions (problem solving, abstract thinking)
- We can say that it has a deficit if it is in 2 standard deviations (30) below the mean (70 and
below).
B. Deficits in adaptive functioning that result in failure to meet developmental and sociocultural
standards for personal independence and social responsibility.
- [difficulty in academic, self-management (basic hygiene can’t be done), thoughts
(inappropriate in age level)].
C. Onset of intellectual and adaptive deficits during the developmental period.
- [during childhood and adolescence]
• Communication Disorders
➢ Language Disorder
- Difficulties in the acquisition and use of language across modalities
- [Differential diagnosis: has a reduce vocabularies (Example: Selective mutism – instances
that a child is not talking in a specific situations)]
➢ Speech Sound Disorder
- Difficulty with speech sound production that interferes with speech intelligibility
- [having a difficulty or change the way it pronounces words]

- [preoccupied in certain behavior or object]
➢ Symptoms are present from early childhood and limit or impair everyday functioning
(Criteria C and D).
• Attention – Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
➢ A persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity – impulsivity that interferes with
functioning or development.
➢ Inattention manifest behaviorally in ADHD as wandering off task, lacking persistence,
having difficulty sustaining focus, and being disorganized and is not due to defiance or lack
of comprehension
➢ Hyperactivity refers to excessive motor activity (such as a child running about) when it is
appropriate, or excessive fidgeting, tapping, or talkativeness.
➢ Impulsivity refers to hasty actions that occur in the moment without forethought and that
have high potential for harm to the individual (e.g., darting into the street without looking)/
➢ Specify whether (for 6 months):
- Combined presentation
- Predominantly inattentive presentation
- Predominantly hyperactive/impulsive presentation
• Specific Learning Disorder
➢ Persistent difficulties learning keystone academic skills (Criteria A), with onset during the years
of formal schooling (i.e., the developmental period – 6 months)
➢ Impairment in reading – Dyslexia
➢ Impairment in mathematics – Dyscalculia
- Having low IQ is not require in having a specific learning disorder, because it focuses on the
keystone academic skill.
• Motor Disorders

Schizoaffective Disorder
There is a major mood episode (major depressive or manic) concurrent with Criterion A
(delusion, hallucination etc) of schizophrenia
Delusions or hallucinations must be present for at least 2 weeks in the absence of a major
mood episode (depressive or manic) at some point during the lifetime duration of the illness.
[preceded for or followed by a mood episode (mood episode then psychotic episode), should
not be present during in the same time]

OBSESSIVE – COMPULSIVE AND RELATED DISORDERS
Obsessive – Compulsive Disorder
Presence of Obsession, compulsions, or both:
Obsessions:
Recurrent and persistent thoughts, urges, or images that are experienced, at some time
during the disturbance, as intrusive and unwanted, and that in most individuals cause marked
anxiety or distress.
The individual attempts to ignore or suppress such thoughts, urges, or images, or to
neutralize them with some other thought or action (i.e., by performing a compulsion)
Compulsions:
Repetitive Behavior (e.g., hand washing, ordering, checking) or mental acts (e.g., praying,
counting, repeating words silently)
The behavior or mental acts are aimed at preventing or reducing anxiety or distress, or
preventing some dreaded events or situation; however, these behaviors or mental acts are not
connected in a realistic way with what they are designed to neutralized or prevent or are
clearly excessive.
Thought Suppression (conscious forgetting) happens.
The obsessions or compulsions are time – consuming (e.g., take more than 1 hour per day) or
cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important
areas of functioning.
Body Dysmorphic Disorder
Preoccupation with one or more perceived defects or flaws in physical appearance that are
not observable or appear slight to others
At some point during the course of the disorder, the individual has performed repetitive
behaviors (e.g., mirror checking, excessive grooming, skin picking, reassurance seeking) or
mental acts (e.g., comparing his or her appearance with that of others) in response to the
appearance concerns.
The preoccupation causes clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational,
or other important areas of functioning.
The appearance preoccupation is not better explained by concerns with body fat or weight in
an individual whose symptoms meet diagnostic criteria for an eating disorder.
Note:
-
Body Dysmorphic Disorder differ from OCD since it is limited in body appearance.
• Hoarding Disorder
➢ Persistent difficult discarding or parting with possession, regardless of their actual value.
➢ The hoarding causes clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or
other important areas of functioning (including maintaining a safe environment for self and
others).
• Trichotillomania (hair – pulling disorder)
➢ Recurrent pulling out of one’s hair, resulting in hair loss.
➢ Repeated attempts to decrease or stop hair pulling
➢ The hair pulling causes clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or
other important areas of functioning
➢ The hair pulling or hair loss is not attributable to another medical condition (e.g., a
dermatological condition).
➢ The hair pulling is not better explained by the symptoms of another mental disorder (e.g.,
attempts to improve a perceive defect or flaw in appearance in body dysmorphic disorder).
