Abnormal Psychology
A “harmful dysfunction” in which behavior is
judged to be disturbing, atypical,
maladaptive and unjustifiable.
Historical Perspective
 Perceived Causes
 movements of sun or moon
 lunacy--full moon
 evil spirits
 Ancient Treatments
 exorcism, caged like animals, beaten,
burned, castrated, mutilated, blood
replaced with animal’s blood
Early Theories
• Abnormal behavior was evil
spirits trying to get out.
• Trephining was often used.
Early Theories
•trephening:
Cutting a hole in
the head of the
afflicted to let
out the evil spirit.
Early Theories
• Another theory was to make the body
extremely uncomfortable
Philippe Pinel
early hospitals
• French doctor who
was the first to
take the chains
off and declare
that these people
are sick and “a
cure must be
found!!!”
History of Mental Disorders
• In the 1800’s,
disturbed
people were no
longer thought
of as madmen,
but as mentally
ill.
They were first put in hospitals.
Did this mean better treatment?
Early Mental Hospitals
• They were nothing more than barbaric
prisons.
•The patients were chained
and locked away.
•Some hospitals even charged admission
for the public to see the “crazies”, just
like a zoo.
DSM-5
http://education-portal.com/academy/lesson/classification-and-diagnosis.html
• Diagnostic
Statistical Manual of
Mental Disorders:
the big book of
disorders.
• DSM will classify
disorders and
describe the
symptoms.
• DSM will NOT explain
the causes or possible
cures.
