- psychopathology
- definitions of abnormality
- statistical infrequency
- something deemed abnormal when someone has a less common characteristic
- eq intellectual disability disorder and IQ
- deviation from social norms
- behaviour thats different from accepted standards. groups of people define whats normal and whats not
- e.g., antisocial personality disorder
- deviation from ideal mental health
- dont meet a set criterion of good mental health
- jahodas 6 criteria
- dont meet a set criterion of good mental health
- failure to function adequately
- rosenhan and seligman
- cannot cope with the demands of everyday life
- e.g., intellectual disability disorder
- statistical infrequency
- ocd
- treating ocd
- drug therapy
- increase/ decrease levels of neurotransmitters in the brain
- selective serotonin reuptake (ssirs)
- presynapse releases it, travels across synapse, reabsorbed, broken down and reused in postsynaptic
- preventing reabsorption= increase levels in synapse
- presynapse releases it, travels across synapse, reabsorbed, broken down and reused in postsynaptic
- selective serotonin reuptake (ssirs)
- can combine with psychological treatments (cbt) or replace drug (clomaprine)
- increase/ decrease levels of neurotransmitters in the brain
- drug therapy
- explaining ocd
- neural explanations
- neurotransmitter serotonin regulates mood
- relaying info from one neuron to another
- low levels of serotonin= relaying of mood doesn't happen
- neural explanations
- neurotransmitter serotonin regulates mood
- relaying info from one neuron to another
- low levels of serotonin= relaying of mood doesn't happen
- low levels of serotonin= relaying of mood doesn't happen
- relaying info from one neuron to another
- neurotransmitter serotonin regulates mood
- neural explanations
- low levels of serotonin= relaying of mood doesn't happen
- relaying info from one neuron to another
- neurotransmitter serotonin regulates mood
- genetic explanations
- candidate genes
- diathesis-stress model
- lewis= 39% ocd parents, 21% ocd siblings
- ocd is polygenic= taylor found up to 230 genes
- ateiologically hetergenous
- neural explanations
- treating ocd
- depression
- treating depression
- cognitive behavioural therapy
- becks cognitive triad
- faulty information processing
- negative self-schemas
- cognitive triad- being negative about (1) the world (2) the self (3) the future
- uses becks triad through: identifying aspects of negative triad and challenging them- set "homework" to disprove belief
- uses ellis's rebt model: changes into abcde (d= dispute, e= effect). aim to dispute irrational beliefs. can do so in 2 ways= logical / empirical
- aims to identify irrational beliefs and replace them with more productive behaviours
- becks cognitive triad
- cognitive behavioural therapy
- explaining depression
- becks cognitive triad
- faulty information processing
- negative self-schemas
- cognitive triad- being negative about (1) the world (2) the self (3) the future
- ellis's ABC model
- (A) activating event is triggered by external/negative events
- (B) activating event then causes an irrational belief to occur (B)
- (C) irrational belief then causes an emotional/behavioural consequence
- (A) activating event is triggered by external/negative events
- (B) activating event then causes an irrational belief to occur (B)
- (C) irrational belief then causes an emotional/behavioural consequence
- (C) irrational belief then causes an emotional/behavioural consequence
- (B) activating event then causes an irrational belief to occur (B)
- (A) activating event is triggered by external/negative events
- (C) irrational belief then causes an emotional/behavioural consequence
- (B) activating event then causes an irrational belief to occur (B)
- (A) activating event is triggered by external/negative events
- becks cognitive triad
- treating depression
- phobias
- explaining phobias
- two-process model
- phobia aquired through classical conditioning
- little albert- rayner and
- mowrer
- phobia maintained through operant conditioning
- phobia aquired through classical conditioning
- two-process model
- treating phobias
- systematic desensitisation
- (1) anxiety heirarchy
- (2) relation techniques
- (3) exposure
- flooding
- immediate exposure
- systematic desensitisation
- explaining phobias
- definitions of abnormality
