What Is Psychopathology

In this lecture, we will answer the question: What Is Psychopathology.

The term abnormal psychology refers to the scientific study of people who are atypical or unusual, with the intent to be able to reliably predict, explain, diagnose, identify the causes of, and treat maladaptive behavior. A more sensitive and less stigmatizing term that is used to refer to the scientific study of psychological disorders is psychopathology. These definitions beg the questions of, what is considered abnormal and what is a psychological or mental disorder? (Bridley & Daffin, 2020).

I am open to additional lecture title suggestions… so if you have a topic in mind, send me your request.
