Concepts and Diagnosis

edit

The concepts and diagnosis (CD) outcomes are related to the ideas surrounding diagnosing psychological disorders, as well as particular concepts in abnormal psychology.

There are three concepts and diagnosis outcomes:

  • CD1: Examine the concepts of normality and abnormality.
  • CD2: Discuss validity and reliability of diagnosis.
  • CD3: Discuss cultural and ethical considerations in diagnosis.

Note that any example responses are not necessarily worth full marks, but exist simply to provide an idea of how an example looks.
