Presently I am majoring in psychology with a specialization into clinical psychology. I have just started taking an introduction to psychopathology course. This course examines the assessment of various forms of psychopathology. In the course, I will review the etiology of psychopathology, the diagnostic criteria, and common diagnostic processes for assessing the most common psychological disorders. The political and cultural aspects of mental disorders, emerging diagnoses, and other contemporary issues are also addressed.
The primary manual for psycho-diagnostics in the United States, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition: DSM-5 by American Psychiatric Association is the main text.
