Description

Features

Putting a Human Face on the Study of Abnormal Psychology

• Students learn about people affected by psychological disorders and learn from them as they tell their stories in their own words. The unique “I” feature in the text takes students directly into the world of people affected by psychological disorders. The “I” feature consists of first-person narratives from people struggling with many different types of psychological disorders.  
• By having students enter the world of people facing the many challenges posed by psychological disorders, the text breaks down barriers between “us” and “them” and helps students see that mental health problems are a concern to all.  
• The human side of the study of abnormal psychology is further emphasized through integrated case examples and accompanying video case interviews.  
• NEW! This edition expands upon the “I” feature by including several more first-person narratives:
  • “Just Checking” (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder; Ch. 6)
  • “Walking on Eggshells” (Borderline Personality Disorder; Ch. 13)
  • “Rubbing Salt into a Wound” (Narcissistic Personality Disorder; Ch. 13)
  • “Living in the Labyrinth” (Alzheimer’s Disease; Ch. 13). 
• Additional “I” features that students will encounter in the text are listed in the TOC.  

Fostering Critical Thinking

Controversies in Abnormal Psychology

• Many students begin the course with an expectation that knowledge of the disorders covered is complete and incontrovertible.  They soon learn that while much has been learned about the underpinnings of these disorders, much remains to be learned.  They also learn that there are many current controversies in the field. By spotlighting these controversies, students are encouraged to think critically about these important issues and examine different points of view.
• Spotlighted controversies include contributions from a number of leading researchers in the field:
  •  John Norcross and Gerrald Koocher on discredited treatments:  “Psychoquackery And Discredited Psychological Treatments In Mental Health”
  • Thomas Widiger on the DSM: “The Bible of Psychiatry”
  • William Sanderson on EBP:  “The Controversy Over Evidence-Based Practice:  Repairing the Rift”
  • Charles Negy on acculturation and mental health: “Coming to America:  The Case of Latinos”
  • Mark and Linda Sobell on the controlled drinking controversy: “In the Eye of the Storm: The Controlled Drinking Controversy”
  • William Iacono on genetic bases of antisocial behavior: “Bad Genes, Bad Behavior?”
  • Wendy Slutske on pathological gambling:  “Losing $10 Million:  A Case of Pathological Gambling?”
• Additional "Controversies" features that students will encounter in the text are listed in the TOC. 

Concept Maps in Abnormal Psychology

• In this edition, a new visual learning tool is introduced to complement the text description of theoretical perspectives–Concept Maps in Abnormal Psychology.  These unique diagrams are crafted to help students “see at a glance” the linkages between specific disorders, underlying causal factors, and treatment approaches.   
• The Tying It Together feature helps students integrate diverse theoretical viewpoints to better understand the complex causal pathways leading to abnormal behavior patterns.
• Keeping Pace with an Ever-Changing Field . The text integrates the latest research findings and scientific developments in the field that inform the understanding of abnormal psychology. The coverage is comprehensive and up-to-date but presented in a way that makes complex material engaging and accessible.
• Expanded Focus on Neuroscience. Research findings on brain-behavior relationships greatly expand the understanding of abnormal behavior patterns.  In this edition, there is expanded coverage of neuroscience research by including such cutting edge developments as the hunt for endophenotypes in schizophrenia, the use of magnetic stimulation therapy for depression, the role of neurotransmitters in explaining drug abuse and dependence, and developments in the search for genetic factors in a wide range of psychological disorders. 
• Expanded Topics. This text expands upon previous editions by including a major new section on impulse control disorders, with an emphasis on pathological gambling and kleptomania.  Contributions from Professor Wendy Slutske, a leading authority on pathological gambling. 

The Fully Integrated, Student-Centric Pedagogy.

• Integrating Diversity Throughout the Text . Examination of abnormal behavior patterns in relation to such factors of diversity as ethnicity, culture, gender, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status. Students can understand how issues of diversity affect the conceptualization of abnormal behavior as well as the diagnosis and treatment of psychological disorders. 
• Integrating Theoretical Perspectives. Students often feel as though one theoretical perspective must ultimately be right and all the others wrong. This text examines the many different theoretical perspectives that inform contemporary understanding of abnormal psychology.  Also explored are the potential causal pathways involving interactions of psychological, sociocultural, and biological factors.
• Integrating Video Case Examples. After students read about psychological disorders, they can see and hear real patients who have been diagnosed with these disorders being interviewed by skilled technicians. The video icons in the margins notify students that they may go to MyPsychLab (www.mypsychlab.com) to see the videos. The interviews are also available on the new Speaking Out Patient Interview CD-Rom. MyPsychLab and the Speaking Out Patient Interviews CD-Rom are available to students as package items with the 7th edition of Abnormal Psychology in a Changing World.
  • The video case examples supplement the many case examples we include in the text itself.  Putting a human face on the subject matter helps make complex material more accessible.  Many of these case examples are drawn from the authors' own clinical files and those of leading mental health professionals.
• Integrating Text and Companion Web Site. Icons in the margins of the text highlight related web content that help students reinforce and expand their learning.  By visiting the companion web site, students can take quizzes that help them review what they’ve learned and find related resources on the web that expand their learning. 
• Integrating Key Terms. A running glossary within the text itself so that students will not need to thumb to the back of the book to find definitions of key terms.   Key terms are boldfaced in the text and defined in both the glossary in the back of the book and in the margins of the text where the terms appear. 
• “Truth or Fiction” Chapter Openers. Each chapter begins with a set of Truth-or-Fiction? questions to whet the student’s appetite for the subject matter within the chapter.  Some items challenge preconceived ideas and common folklore and debunk myths and misconceptions, whereas others highlight new research developments in the field.  Instructors and students have repeatedly reported to us that they find this feature stimulating and challenging. 
  • The Truth-or-Fiction? questions are revisited and answered in the sections of the chapter where the topics are discussed. Students are thus given feedback concerning the accuracy of their preconceptions in the light of the material being addressed. 
• Self-scoring questionnaires involve students in the discussion at hand and permit them to evaluate their own attitudes and behavior patterns. In some cases, students may become more aware of troubling concerns, such as states of depression or problems with drug or alcohol use, which they may want to bring to the attention of a helping professional. The questionnaires have been carefully screened by the authors to ensure they will provide students with useful information to reflect upon as well as serve as a springboard for class discussion.  Examples include:
  • The Life Orientation Test  (Optimism Scale) (Ch. 5) 
  • The Dissociative Experiences Scale (Ch. 7) 
  • Are You Depressed? (Chapter 8) 
  • The Fear of Fat Scale (Ch. 10) 
  • Examining Your Attitudes Toward Aging (Ch. 15) 
• Overview Charts   Overview charts are capsulized summaries of various disorders.
• “Summing-Up” Chapter Summaries   The Summing-Up chapter summaries are organized in a question-and-answer format, rather than a traditional narrative summary.  

Maintaining Focus

Abnormal Psychology in a Changing World is a complete learning and teaching package that brings into focus four major objectives: 

(1) integrating an interactionist or biopsychosocial model of abnormal behavior;

(2) underscoring the importance of issues of diversity to the understanding and treatment of psychological disorders;

(3) maintaining currency; 

(4) adopting a student-centric pedagogy.  

• Focus on the Interactionist Approach
  • The authors approach their writing with the belief that a better understanding of abnormal psychology is gained by adopting a biopsychosocial orientation that takes into account the roles of psychological, biological, and sociocultural factors and their interactions in the development of abnormal behavior patterns.  They emphasize the value of taking an interactionist approach as a running theme throughout the text. The text features a prominent interactionist model, the diathesis-stress model, to help students better understand the factors contributing to different forms of abnormal behavior.
• Focus on Exploring Key Issues in our Changing World
  • The Closer Look boxed features provide opportunities for further exploration of selected topics that reflect contemporary issues and concerns.  Several Closer Look features provide information and resources that enable students to apply information in the text to their own lives. Examples include:
    • Thinking Critically About Abnormal Psychology (Ch. 1)
    • How Do I Find Help? (Ch. 4)
    • Warning Signs of Trauma-Related Stress (Ch. 5)
    • Psychological Methods for Lowering Arousal (Ch. 5)
    • Coping with a Panic Attack (Ch. 6)
    • Suicide Prevention (Ch. 8)
    • To Sleep, Perchance to Dream (Ch. 10)
  • Other Closer Look features focus on intriguing research findings or emerging developments in the field:
    • Something Fishy About This (Ch. 8)
    • Magnetic Stimulation Therapy for Depression (Ch. 8)
    • “In Cold Blood”:  Peering into the Minds of Psychopathic Murderers  (Ch. 13) 
  • Still others focus on specific topical issues, providing opportunities for more in-depth exploration of these topics:
    • Dying of a Broken Heart (Ch. 5)
    • Homophobia: Social Prejudice or Personal Psychopathology? (Ch. 11)
    • Münchausen Syndrome (Ch. 7)
    • Binge Drinking, a Dangerous College Pastime (Ch. 9)
    • The Savant Syndrome (Ch. 14)
    • The Love Delusion (Ch. 12)

  Psychology in a Changing World puts a human face on the study of Abnormal Psychology.  For courses in Abnormal Psychology and Psychopathology.

    

  Within the field of abnormal psychology, research developments continue to sharpen the understanding of abnormal behavior. In Abnormal Psychology in a Changing World, Nevid, Rathus, and Greene endeavor to bring these advances to students in a way that both stimulates interest and makes complex material understandable. More importantly, however, they recognize there is a basic human dimension to the study of abnormal psychology.  The approach the authors take is to help students enter the world of people suffering from the range of disorders they encounter in the text.  By including many illustrative case examples drawn from the authors' own case experiences and those of other practitioners, as well as through supplementary video cases, featuring interviews with real people diagnosed with different disorders, and a landmark pedagogical feature of first-person narratives from people struggling with psychological disorders, Abnormal Psychology in a Changing World, 8th edition helps put a human face on the study of abnormal psychology.
