from Feldman
Chapter: PSYCHOLOGICAL DISORDERS topic : defining abnormality has to be written in detail and the perspectives on abnormality should also be discussed. in feldman book the answer to this question lies on page 531-536. |
@Yousufzai
She is right. Criteria for abnormality is given in the Robert Feldman's book. CHAPTER = 16 (Psychological Disorders) Page = 537 Abnormality as deviation from the average; Abnormality as deviation from the ideal; Abnormality as a sense of subjective discomfort; Abnormality as the inability to function effectively; and Abnormality as a legal concept. This is what I found. You are also suggested to google your question on the google. IMRAN AHMAD SAJID (CSS-2010) |
