Question.4430 - PSY 215 Module Three Activity Guidelines and RubricOverviewIn this journal activity, you will discuss the biopsychosocial causes of abnormal behavior, as well as challenges that clinicians face when addressing behaviors shared among psychological disorders.ScenarioAs Jamal researched the factors that cause atypical patterns of human thought, emotion, and behavior, he had a revelation: Abnormal behavior is more complicated than many of us realize. For example, Jamal discovered that abnormalities in behavior can be caused by biological factors (e.g., genetics, neurophysiology, biochemistry). Also, abnormal behavior can be caused by psychological factors (e.g., severe emotional distress, grief, trauma). Finally, Jamal discovered that abnormalities in behavior can be caused by sociocultural factors (e.g., social norms, familial values). Of the many valuable takeaways of his research, Jamal found that abnormal behavior is a complex phenomenon that can have biological, psychological, and sociocultural causes. In many cases, it is not the result of one causal factor, but of several co-occurring, interdependent factors.Given the dynamic interplay between biological, psychological, and sociocultural factors, the behaviors of various disorders often overlap, making the accurate diagnosis of psychological disorders a challenge for clinical professionals.Disorder/Behavior ListAnxiety: A psychological response to a stimulus that is perceived as threateningExample: Avoiding interaction at a party due to discomfort in social situationsDepression: A persistent feeling of sadness and despair that can result in a loss of interest in various life activitiesExample: Excessive cryingDissociation: A psychological detachment and separation from self and environmentExamples: Daydreaming, highway hypnosisMania: A period of intense energy expenditure that may involve delusions and engagement in high-risk behaviorExamples: Excessive spending, reckless drivingObsessive thoughts/compulsive behaviors: Persistent and undesirable thoughts or urges and ritualistic behaviors often driven by preoccupation with a negative outcomeExample: Frequent hand washing that is motivated by a fear of being contaminated by germsPanic: An intense period of fear combined with physiological symptoms (e.g., rapid speech, sweating, nausea)Example: Stomach gets upset and hands shake while speaking in front of a group (public speaking)Phobia: A fear of a specific, often nonthreatening stimulusExamples: Seeks an escape route when in a crowded area (Agoraphobia: fear of crowded spaces)Psychosis: A psychological state in which one experiences hallucinations, delusions, and/or a persistent and unchangeable belief in something that is obviously falseExample: Acting suspiciously due to suspecting that food is being poisonedPromptThe following resources support your work on this activity:Module Three Activity Template Word Document: You may use this template to complete the Module Three Activity assignment.Psychology Research Guide: This resource was created to help you find psychology related content.Purdue OWL: This resource is provided to assist you with referencing resources according to APA standards.For this journal activity, use your template to address the following rubric criteria with a minimum of 3 to 5 sentences per bullet.
