When we, the authors, decided to write this textbook, we wanted to create something different for our students. We wanted to create a book that appealed to students by helping them understand that symptoms of psychological problems occur in many people in different ways. We wanted to avoid character- izing mental disorders from a “yes–no” or “us–them” perspective and focus instead on how such problems affect many people to varying degrees in their everyday lives. In essence, we wanted to illustrate how abnormal psychology was really about the strug- gles that all of us face in our lives to some extent. We represent this approach in our title: Abnormal Psychology and Life.

Abnormal psychology is one of the most popular courses on college campuses. Students are eager to learn about unusual behavior and how such behavior can be explained. Many stu- dents who take an abnormal psychology course crave a scien- ti�c perspective that can help prepare them well for graduate school and beyond. Other students take an abnormal psychol- ogy course because they are curious about themselves or people they know and thus seek application and relevance of the course information to their daily lives. Our book is designed to appeal to both types of students. The material in the book re�ects state- of-the-art thinking and research regarding mental disorders but also emphasizes several key themes that increase personal relevance. These themes include a dimensional and integrative perspective, a consumer-oriented perspective, and emphases on prevention and cultural diversity. Personal relevance is also achieved by providing information to reduce the stigma of men- tal disorder; by illustrating comprehensive models of mental disorder that include biological, psychological, and other risk factors; and by employing various pedagogical aids, visually appealing material, and technological utilities.

A Dimensional and Integrative Perspective A focus on how abnormal psychology is a key part of life comes about in this book in different ways. One main way is our focus on a dimensional perspective toward mental disorder. We believe that thoughts, feelings, and behaviors associated with mental disorders are present, to some degree, in all of us. Everyone experiences some level of anxiety, sadness, odd physical symp- toms, worry about sexual behavior, and memory problems from time to time, for example. Throughout our chapters we vividly illustrate how different mental disorders can be seen along a continuum of normal, mild, moderate, severe, and very severe emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. We also provide examples along this continuum that parallel common scenarios people face, such as interactions with others and job interviews.

Our dimensional perspective is discussed within the context of an integrative perspective that includes an extensive discus- sion of risk and protective factors for various mental disorders. Such factors include biological (e.g., genetic, neurochemical, brain changes), personality, psychological (e.g., cognitive, learn- ing, trauma), interpersonal, family, cultural, evolutionary, and other domains. We emphasize a diathesis-stress model and pro- vide sections that integrate risk factors to present comprehen- sive models of various mental disorders. We also provide an appendix of medical conditions with contributing psychological factors that includes a biopsychosocial perspective to explain the interplay of physical symptoms with stress and other key contributing variables.

A Consumer-Oriented Perspective Our book is also designed to recognize the fact that today’s stu- dent is very consumer-oriented. Students expect textbooks to be relevant to their own lives and to deliver information about diagnostic criteria, epidemiological data, brain changes, and assessment instruments in visually appealing and technologi- cally sophisticated ways. This textbook adopts a consumer approach in several ways. The chapters in this book contain suggestions for those who are concerned that they or someone they know may have symptoms of a speci�c mental disorder. These suggestions also come with key questions one could ask to determine whether a problem may be evident. In addition, much of our material is geared toward a consumer approach. In our discussion of neurocognitive disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, for example, we outline questions one could ask when considering placing a parent in a nursing home.

The consumer orientation of this book is also prominent in the last chapter when we discuss topics such as becoming a men- tal health professional, becoming a client in therapy, treatments available at the community level such as self-help groups, and how to judge a research article, among other topics. Throughout our chapters, we also focus special attention on issues of gen- der, ethnicity, law and ethics, and violence in separate boxes. In addition, we have separate sections that speci�cally address symptoms of mental disorder in college students. We offer visually appealing examples of a dimensional model for each major mental disorder, brain �gures, and engaging tables and charts to more easily convey important information. The book is also linked to many technological resources and contains 15 chapters, which �ts nicely into a typical 15-week semester.

We also include several pedagogical aids to assist students during their learning process. The chapters are organized in a

similar fashion throughout, beginning with initial sections on normal and unusual behavior and followed by discussions of features and epidemiology, stigma, causes and prevention, assess- ment, treatment, and prognosis. The chapters contain interim summaries and review questions at periodic intervals to help students check their understanding of what they just learned. Bold key terms are placed throughout the chapters and correspond- ing de�nitions are placed in the margin. What Do You Think? questions appear after the chapter-opening case study, which help students focus on important aspects of the case. Boxes that direct readers to related videos from the Continuum Video Project are featured in the disorder chapters (Chapters 5–14). More information on the Continuum Video Project, available in MindTap, is on page xxix. Final comments are also provided at the end of each chapter to link material to previous and future chapters. Broad-based thought questions are also at the end of each chapter to challenge students to apply what they have learned to their daily lives. The writing style of the book is designed to be easy to follow and to succinctly convey key information.

Prevention Another important theme of this book is prevention. Most col- lege students function well in their environment, but everyone has some level of risk for psychological dysfunction or distress. We thus emphasize research-based ways to prevent the onset of psychological problems throughout this textbook. We offer spe- ci�c sections on prevention and provide a detailed discussion of risk factors for mental disorder and how these risk factors could be minimized. We also provide a discussion of protective factors and strategies that could be nurtured during one’s life to prevent psychological problems. Examples include anxiety and stress management, emotional regulation, appropriate coping, healthy diet, and adaptive parenting.

Much of our discussion in this area focuses on primary and secondary prevention, which has great appeal for students. Many prevention programs target those who have not developed a mental disorder or who may be at risk due to individual or environmental factors. A focus on prevention helps students un- derstand what they could do to avert problematic symptoms or to seek help before such symptoms become more severe. Pre- vention material in the book also focuses on tertiary prevention and relapse prevention, so students can understand what steps people can take to continue healthy functioning even after the occurrence of a potentially devastating mental disorder. The pre- vention material in this book thus has broad appeal, relevance, and utility for students.

Cultural Diversity Mental health professionals have made a more concerted effort to achieve greater cultural diversity in their research, to apply �ndings in laboratory settings to greater numbers of people, and to shine a spotlight on those who are traditionally underserved. We emphasize these greater efforts in this textbook. In addition

to the special boxes on diversity, we provide detailed informa- tion about cultural syndromes; how symptoms and epidemiology may differ across cultural groups; how certain cultural factors may serve as risk and protective factors for various disorders; how diagnostic, assessment, and treatment strategies may need to be modi�ed for different cultural groups; and how cultural groups may seek treatment or cope differently with symptoms of mental disorder.

Our discussion of cultural diversity applies to various eth- nic and racial groups, but diversity across individuals is repre- sented in many other ways as well. We focus heavily on gender differences, sexual orientation, sociocultural factors, migrant populations, and changes in symptoms as people age from childhood to adolescence to adulthood to late adulthood. Our emphasis on cultural and other types of diversity is consistent with our life-based approach for the book: Symptoms of mental disorder can occur in many people in many different ways in many life stages.

Stigma A focus on a dimensional approach to mental disorder helps us advance another key theme of this book, which is to reduce stigma. Stigma refers to socially discrediting people because of certain behaviors or attributes that may lead to them being seen as undesirable in some way. People with schizophrenia, for example, are often stigmatized as people who cannot function or who may even be dangerous. Adopting a dimensional per- spective to mental disorder helps reduce inaccurate stereotypes and the stigma associated with many of these problems. You will also see throughout this book that we emphasize people �rst and a mental disorder second to reduce stigma. You will not see us use words or phrases such as schizophrenics or bulimics or the learning disabled. Instead, you will see phrases such as people with schizophrenia, those with bulimia, or children with learning disorder. We also provide special sections on stigma throughout the chapters as well as boxes that contain informa- tion to dispel common myths about people with mental disor- ders that likely lead to negative stereotyping.

Clinical Cases and Narratives Our dimensional perspective and our drive to reduce stigma is enhanced as well by extensive use of clinical cases and personal narratives throughout the book. Clinical cases are presented in chapters that describe a particular mental disorder and are often geared toward cases to which most college students can relate. These cases then reappear throughout that chapter as we dis- cuss features of that disorder as well as assessment and treat- ment strategies. We also include personal narratives from people who have an actual mental disorder and who can discuss its symptoms and other features from direct experience. All of these cases reinforce the idea that symptoms of mental disorder are present to some degree in many people, perhaps including those easily recognized by a student as someone in his or her life.

PREFACE

New to the Third Edition The third edition contains many new and exciting changes. Readers will see that the most obvious change is that ongo- ing research has adapted to the most recent edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), DSM), DSM the DSM-5. State-of-the-art research and citations are thus presented. The chapters remain aligned as they were previ- ously to enhance teaching in a typical semester and to re�ect empirical work that has been done for each set of disorders. DSM-5 criteria and other information are presented to help illuminate symptoms of mental disorders for students and to convey various dimensional aspects as well. Examples include continua based on severity, number of symptoms or behav- ioral episodes, body mass index, and personality traits, among many others.

The third edition also contains many boxes devoted to gen- der, diversity, violence, and law and ethics. In addition, separate sections have been added regarding how symptoms of mental disorders often manifest themselves in college students. Up- dated sections on stigma also illustrate our commitment to this important topic and present fascinating research with respect to others’ views of someone with a mental disorder and treatment and other strategies that have been developed to reduce stigma toward those with mental disorder.

An important process as well has been a thorough review of the material to ensure that students continue to be presented with state-of-the-art research and most current thinking regard- ing mental disorders, including epidemiology. Many sections of the book have thus been redone or reworked to re�ect new data, and hundreds of new citations have been added, most of which are very current. One thing that has not changed, however, is our deep devotion and commitment to this work and to our students and their instructors.

Supplements Continuum Video Project The Continuum Video Project provides holistic, three-dimensional portraits of individuals dealing with psychopathologies. Videos show clients living their daily lives, interacting with family and friends, and displaying—rather than just describing—their symp- toms. Before each video segment, students are asked to make observations about the individual’s symptoms, emotions, and behaviors and then rate them on the spectrum from normal to severe. The Continuum Video Project allows students to “see” the disorder and the person as a human; and helps viewers under- stand abnormal behavior can be viewed along a continuum.

Pro�les in Psychopathology In Pro�les of Psychopathology, students explore the lives of indi- viduals with mental disorders to better understand the etiology,

symptoms and treatment. Each of the ten modules focuses on one type of disorder.
