PSYC 2200 Psychological Disorders

Nearly half of adults in North America are expected to experience a psychological disorder at some point in their lives. Studying psychopathology involves exploring how conditions like OCD, depression, and schizophrenia are defined, diagnosed, explained, and treated, as well as social issues involving the disorders, and the struggles and contributions of people with diagnoses. By examining scientific research, exploring case histories, and having discussions, students gain insight into the complexity, meaning, and critical importance of mental disorders.
