Abnormal Psychology
This is one of the additional sections that go along with the three levels of analysis. You may have a different addition, seeing as it is the teacher's choice in what option will be chosen for the class to study. To those of you who have recieved Abnormal Psych. to study, hurrah for you! Here are outlines and points to make in your essays.
Oh, and a few more things.
Just like in the other LOA's, there are a few key factors that you should always include in your abnormal psych. essays.
- Try to address all three levels of analysis in each essay (Biological, Cognitive, and Sociocultural)
- Always include what I like to remember as the BACE (heehee, base--> bace) points in your intro or throughout your essay :
* Bidirectional - mention how all the LOA's connect together in some way
* Abnormal/ Normal (see Question 1) - how it is difficult to judge normality
* Cultural Considerations - YOU HAVE TO HAVE CULTURE IN THERE SOMEWHERE, ALWAYS!!!!
* Ethical Considerations - Ethics are necessary, too!
