This course engages students in a critical review of theories and research in psychological disorders. Strengths and limitations of current diagnostic classification systems, such as the DSM, are analyzed, as are the personal and social consequences of their use. Current models of diagnosis, etiology, maintenance, and treatment of various disorders are reviewed. We explore limits on the generalizability of key concepts and findings across individual and cultural diversities. Three hours a week. 08-09-2022-06-12-2022 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 01:00PM - 02:15PM, Faculty Sustainable Design Eng, Room 128A
