Description

Abnormal Psychology, 11e, is a classic textbook that builds on the strengths of existing theoretical systems and clinical methods to provide students with a comprehensive and up-to-date real-world overview of the field of abnormal psychology. It focuses on maladaptive behavior as a product of the interaction between personal vulnerabilities and resiliencies.\nFeatures: \n Each chapter now begins with “What This Chapter Is About,” a concise overview of what will be covered in the chapter.\n• Each chapter now ends with “Our Take-Away Message,” in which the authors present some personal views on the material that has been covered.\n• “Vulnerability and Resilience” boxes throughout the book emphasize the concepts of vulnerability and resilience as they influence the risk of maladaptive behavior and response to therapy. The number of “Vulnerability and Resilience” boxes has been increased in this edition to strengthen the theme.\n• Material on current issues and research, e.g., brain plasticity and neurogenesis, the effects of drugs on bodily systems, the effects of 9/11 on New York City residents and other people, the use of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in mood disorders, and more, have been included.\n• Numerous brief cases have been incorporated in the text, which include first-person accounts that illustrate the experience of mental illness, as well as the nature and challenges of clinical practice and clinically-relevant research. \n• New case material has also been added on PTSD, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and transsexualism.\nContents: \nChapter 1 Introduction 2\nChapter 2 Theoretical Perspectives on Maladaptive Behavior \nChapter 3 The Therapeutic Enterprise: Choices, Techniques, Evaluation\nChapter 4 Classification and Assessment \nChapter 5 Stress, Coping, and Maladaptive Behavior \nChapter 6 Bodily Maladaptations: Eating, Sleeping, and Psychophysiological\nDisorders\nChapter 7 Disorders of Bodily Preoccupation\nChapter 8 Anxiety Disorders \nChapter 9 Sexual Variants and Disorders \nChapter 10 Personality Disorders \nChapter 11 Mood Disorders and Suicide \nChapter 12 Schizophrenia and Other Psychotic Disorders \nChapter 13 Cognitive Impairment Disorders\nChapter 14 Substance-Related Disorders \nChapter 15 Disorders of Childhood and Adolescence\nChapter 16 Pervasive Developmental Disorders and Mental Retardation \nChapter 17 Society’s Response to Maladaptive Behavior
