DESCRIPTION
This course examines the historical conception of abnormal psychology and what is culturally considered abnormal behavior. A connection is drawn from the historical foundations of abnormal psychology to present-day assessment, diagnosis, theory, research, causes and treatment.

This course may include potential visits to local clinics and possible interviews with mental health care professionals in Aix.
