Unit 8 – Clinical Psychology
Topic 8.1
How does the biopsychosocial approach challenge traditional views on psychological disorders?
This approach argues that biological, psychological, and sociocultural factors jointly influence disorder manifestation.
It claims that only sociocultural elements affect occurrences of mental diseases.
It contends that solely one's biology determines their susceptibility to psychiatric issues.
This perspective suggests that exclusively individual psychology is responsible for disorder development.
