Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abnormal Child Psychology: A Developmental Perspective is intended for undergraduate and Masters-level students enrolled in courses in Abnormal Child and Adolescent Psychology. Written from a developmental perspective, the book is organized around five prominent and recurring themes: the course of normal development proceeds in an orderly and predictable direction; maladaptive behaviors represent deviations from the normal path; maladaptive behavior is represented by a continuum of severity (symptoms, syndromes, disorders) based on the degree to which behaviors deviate from the norm; individual, interpersonal, contextual and cultural factors interact in a reciprocal way to influence normal development and abnormal deviations; theoretical input from diverse perspectives can guide our understanding of underlying processes that precipitate and maintain behaviors and the different developmental pathways that might result. The text provides students with a learning model which incorporates three essential cornerstones, which are pivotal to understanding child and adolescent psychopathology: the K3 paradigm that consists of knowledge of developmental expectations, knowledge of the sources of influence, and knowledge of the theoretical models. Each chapter opens with a case illustration to highlight the themes of the material that follows. The chapters conclude with a Summary Review, Glossary of New Terms and a Set of Review Questions.

This book aims to provide a thorough exploration of the field of abnormal psychology, offering both foundational knowledge and cutting-edge insights for students, professionals, and anyone interested in understanding the complexities of mental health disorders. Abnormal psychology is a multifaceted discipline concerned with the study of unusual patterns of behavior, thought, and emotion that may indicate the presence of a psychological disorder. It is a field that bridges various perspectives, from biological and psychological theories to social and cultural influences. As our understanding of mental health continues to evolve, this book seeks to provide a comprehensive overview of the current theories, diagnostic criteria, and treatment approaches, integrating the latest research and clinical practices. The journey through this book will guide you through the historical development of abnormal psychology, explore major theoretical perspectives, and delve into the nuances of various psychological disorders. We will examine mood disorders, anxiety disorders, psychotic disorders, personality disorders, and more, providing a balanced view of each through both theoretical frameworks and practical applications. One of the primary goals of this book is to bridge the gap between theory and practice. By including case studies and real-world applications, we aim to illustrate how theoretical models translate into clinical settings and how they can inform effective treatment strategies. Our approach is designed to facilitate a deep understanding of the complexities of mental health disorders and the diverse methods used to address them. I would like to express my gratitude to the many scholars, practitioners, and researchers who have contributed to the field of abnormal psychology.
