课程概述

This course presents an overview of the major domains of abnormal psychology. The course is made up of 5 modules, the first of which provides an introduction to the field through discussions of the concept of psychological abnormality, assessment and classification, and the major models in use for understanding psychological abnormality. The remaining four modules provide overviews of major domains of abnormal psychology, including mood disorders, anxiety disorders, stress and trauma-related disorders, and schizophrenia spectrum disorders. Lectures within each of these modules address symptoms and behaviors, epidemiology, causal theories, treatment interventions and multicultural findings and considerations. The course also seeks to assist participants with becoming more adept at noticing when a family member, friend, or colleague may be experiencing psychological distress, as well as develop the comfort level required for initiating an empathic, compassionate conversation with a person of concern. Toward this goal, the last lecture of each module is dedicated to the topic “Foundations of Empathy.” This course is not designed to assist participants with resolving their own experiences of psychopathology, nor it is intended to prepare participants to act as psychotherapists for distressed individuals in their personal lives....

While the information was interesting, the instructor sat at a desk and lectured from behind her computer - a psychologist talking from behind a black screen covering all but her head, neck and necklace. Hardly a model of empathy or connectedness for a psychology topic. The quizzes covered some important information and some unimportant factoids. e.g. Remembering the percentage of NYers vs. others in the U.S. suffering from PTSD after the events of 9-11 hardly grows one's knowledge of the condition.

Good overview of major mental disorders but doesn't cover the full array of disorders in the DSM even from a high level.

I assumed that this course was free for me, because I sent an application letter and my application was accepted, everything is fine, I could take the exams but now I can't, and when I try, they say that I have to pay. What happened, I wonder. I wait for an answer.
