Graduate Psychology Preparatory Courses
CLI PY500—
ABNORMAL PSYCHOLOGY
(3 credits)
This course introduces students to the “map” of how cultures define behavior deemed problematic, challenging or deviant. The course will review the history of assessment and classification schemas of abnormal behavior. The DSM IV TR provides the structure to review current mental health diagnoses and their assessment and treatment. Credit for this course may not be applied toward a graduate degree at MSPP.
