    Many problems presenting as disorders of behavior, cognition, or mood may, on careful physical examination, have a clear relationship to a temporary toxic state.

    physical examination

  • 56

    takes this process one step further by using direct observation to assess formally an individual’s thoughts, feelings, and behavior in specific situations or contexts.

    behavioral assessment

  • 57

    People can also observe their own behavior to find patterns, a technique known as

    self monitoring

  • 58

    Psychological tests include specific tools to determine cognitive, emotional, or behavioral responses that might be associated with a specific disorder and more general tools that assess long standing personality features, such as a tendency to be suspicious.

    psychological test

  • 59

    They include a variety of methods in which ambiguous stimuli, such as pictures of people or things, are presented to people who are asked to describe what they see. • Rorschach Inkblot • Thematic Apperception Test

    projective testing

  • 60

    Measure abilities in areas such as receptive and expressive language, attention and concentration, memory, motor skills, perceptual abilities, and learning and abstraction in such a way that the clinician can make educated guesses about the person’s performance and the possible existence of brain impairment.

    neuropsychological testing

  • 61

    this is the area responsible for higher cognitive functions such as thinking and reasoning, planning for the future, as well as long-term memory.

    prefrontal cortex

  • 62

    It is a psychological dysfunction within an individual that is associated with distress or impairment in functioning and a response that is not typical or culturally expected

    abnormal behavior

  • 63

    refers to a breakdown in cognitive, emotional, or behavioral functioning

    psychological dysfunction

  • 64

    If people suffer or experience psychological pain, we are inclined to consider this as indicative of abnormality.

    subjective distress

  • 65

    is often an indicator of abnormality. This behavior interferes with our well-being and with our ability to enjoy our work and our relationships

    maladaptiveness

  • 66

    The word abnormal literally means?

    away from normal

  • 67

    simply considering statistically rare behavior to be abnormal does not provide us with a solution to our problem of defining abnormality. Ex. Intellectual Disability is statistically rare and represents a deviation from normal. However, there are somethings that are undesirable but statistically common.

    statistical deviancy

  • 68

    When someone fails to follow rules, we may consider their behavior abnormal.

    violation of the standards of society

  • 69

    when someone violates an implicit or unwritten social rule, those around him or her may experience a sense of discomfort or unease.

    social discomfort

  • 70

    We expect people to behave in certain ways. However, a little unusual behavior sometimes we consider it as abnormal behavior

    irrationally and unpredictability

  • 71

    When you think that someone might be a danger you or you will be a danger to someone, might possibly be considered as psychologically abnormal BUT we cannot assume all person with mental health problems are dangerous.

    dangerousness

  • 72

    Its basic tenets included treating institutionalized patients as normally as possible in a setting that encouraged and reinforced normal social interaction.

    moral therapy

  • 75

    Her best-known work is the mental hygiene movement.

    dorothea dix

  • 76

    attempts to trace the origins of behavior to a single cause.

    one dimensional model

  • 77

    the biology and behavior of the individual, as well as the cognitive, emotional, social, and cultural environment, because any one component of the system inevitably affects the other components. This is a ____

    multidimensional model

  • 78

    include causal factors from the fields of genetics and neuroscience.

    biological dimension

  • 79

    This dimension include causal factors from behavioral and cognitive processes, including learned helplessness, social learning, prepared learning, and even unconscious processes

    psychological dimension

  • 80

    This dimension involves Sociocultural factors

    social dimensions

  • 81

    is one of a pair of genes that strongly influences a particular trait, and we need only one of them to determine.

    dominant gene

  • 82

    must be paired with another gene to determine a trait.

    recessive gene

  • 83

    individuals inherit tendencies to express certain traits or behaviors, which may then be activated under conditions of stress.

    the diathesis stress model

  • 84

    Some evidence now indicates that genetic endowment may increase the probability that an individual will experience stressful life events.

    gene environment correlation model

  • 85

    is the lower and more ancient part of the brain. Found in most animals, this structure handles most of the essential automatic functions, such as breathing, sleeping, and moving around in a coordinated way.

    brain stem

  • 86

    Part of brain. more advanced and evolved more recently.

    forebrain

  • 87

    Part of brain contains the medulla, the pons, and the cerebellum. The ____ regulates many automatic activities, such as breathing, the pumping action of the heart (heartbeat), and digestion.

    hindbrain

  • 88

    Part of brain controls motor coordination,

    cerebellum

  • 89

    Part of brain coordinates movement with sensory input and contains parts of the reticular activating system, which contributes to processes of arousal and tension, such as whether we are awake or asleep.

    midbrain

  • 90

    Part of brain _____ and ____ are involved broadly with regulating behavior and emotion. These structures function primarily as a relay between the forebrain and the remaining lower areas of the brain stem.

    thalamus and hypothalamus

  • 91

    Part of brain This system helps regulate our emotional experiences and expressions and, to some extent, our ability to learn and to control our impulses. It is also involved with the basic drives of sex, aggression, hunger, and thirst.

    limbic system

  • 92

    Part of brain also at the base of the forebrain, include the caudate (tailed) nucleus. Because damage to these structures may make us change our posture or twitch or shake, they are believed to control motor activity.

    basal ganglia

  • 93

    is the scientific study of psychological disorders.

    psychopathology

  • 94

    how many people in the population as a whole have the disorder?

    prevalence

  • 95

    Statistics on how many new cases occur during a given period, such as a year.

    incidence

  • 96

    most disorders follow a somewhat individual pattern, example when a disorder is a chronic course, meaning that they tend to last a long time, sometimes a lifetime.

    course

  • 97
