4) Disorders Creative Project Clarification. We made sure everyone has a disorder to research. Handouts are due next class. Creative Projects are due next week.
5) What is abnormal? We talked about what is normal and what is abnormal. There are three criteria I use when determining if something is a mental disorder:
1. Does it violate cultural norms?
2. Is it harmful for yourself or others?
3. Does it make your life inefficient?
We also talked about labeling and its problems, the DSM-IV, drapetomania, the study of being sane in insane places, and more.
6) Anxiety Disorders. We took notes over four main ones and watched video clips on them.
Assignments:
1) Read and take notes over chapter 16 up to page 653.
