CPS 666 - Advanced Psychopathology


3 credit(s)
Psychological, behavioral, and organic disorders are examined, with an emphasis on theoretical perspectives (analytic/dynamic, behavioral, existential/humanistic, biological, and sociocultural). Diagnostic classification systems are reviewed in detail, and the making of differential diagnoses is stressed. Treatment implications and current research findings are considered. Certain sections of this course are designated as child sections. In addition to covering the preceding material, more in-depth attention is paid to the DSM-IV-TR’s Disorders First Diagnosed in Infancy, Childhood, or Adolescence and other relevant issues when working with psychopathology in children, adolescents, and their families.
Prerequisite(s): Students in child section must be matriculated in the Child and Adolescent proficiency track or have permission from the program director.
