7 DEVIANT? To deviate, in general, means to vary from what typically would happen. In psychology, a behavior or mental state is considered deviant by a culture when it is different from what would be expected in that culture. A disorder may also be a deviation from a typical developmental pathway. Examples: Bulimia Nervosa: binging/purging, in the United States Running amok: violent outbursts, in Malaysia Hikikomori: social withdrawal, in Japan Defining Deviance: The Role of Context and Culture Context: whether a behavior varies from expectation depends on the situation in which the behavior occurs Yelling for hours is not deviant when it happens at a football game. Culture: these painted faces might seem deviant when viewed from a different culture
8 UNDERSTANDING THE NATURE OF PSYCHOLOGICAL DISORDERS One reason to diagnose a disorder is to make decisions about treating the problem. To treat a disorder, it helps to understand the nature/cause of the psychological symptoms. Based on older understanding of psychological disorders, treatments have included: exorcising evil spirits, beatings, caging/restraint, and

10 PINEL S NEW APPROACH Philippe Pinel ( ) and others sought to reform brutal treatment by promoting a new understanding of the nature of mental disorders. Pinel proposed that mental disorders were not caused by demonic possession, but by environmental factors such as stress and inhumane conditions. Pinel s moral treatment involved improving the environment and replacing the asylum beatings with patient dances. From the humane view to the scientific view of the mentally ill: Pinel s humane environmental interventions improved lives but often did not effectively treat mental illness But then

21 ANXIETY DISORDERS Mental problems characterized mainly by anxiety. anxiety. Anxiety is the most common mental disorder in the US Considering healthcare expenses, lost wages, and lost productivity, anxiety disorders cost an estimated $42 billion Anxiety is a normal reaction to stress. It helps one deal with a tense situation work, study harder for an exam, or keep focused on an important speech. In general, it helps one cope. But when anxiety becomes Copyright an Allyn excessive, & Bacon 2007 irrational dread of

29 SOCIAL ANXIET Y THOUGHTS HANDOUT "In any social situation, I felt fear. I would be anxious before I even left the house, and it would escalate as I got closer to a college class, a party, or whatever. I would feel sick at my stomach it almost felt like I had the flu. My heart would pound, my palms would get sweaty, and I would get this feeling of being removed from myself and from everybody else.
30 THE AVOIDANCE OF SITUATIONS IN WHICH ONE WILL FEAR HAVING A PANIC ATTACK, ESPECIALLY A SITUATION IN WHICH IT IS DIFFICULT TO GET HELP, AND FROM WHICH IT DIFFICULT TO ESCAPE.
31 POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER Delayed stress reaction in which an individual involuntarily re-experiences emotional, cognitive, and behavioral aspects of past trauma 1. Haunting memories 2. Nightmares 3. Social withdrawal 4. Jumpy anxiety 5. Sleep problems Posttraumatic Growth: positive psychological changes as a result of struggling with extremely challenging Prevalence: 4% (women 2x as likely as men) PTSD & the Military Report: 950 suicide attempts per month among veterans receiving care Approximately 18 suicides by US veterans per day Copyright Allyn & Bacon 2007
32 Obssessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Characterized by pattern of persistent, unwanted thoughts and behaviors OCD is made up of two components: 1. Obsessions Persistent thoughts, ideas, images, or impulses that invade consciousness 2. Compulsions Repetitive and rigid behaviors or thoughts that people must perform to prevent or reduce anxiety DSM-V CRITERIA
33 WHAT ARE THE FEATURES OF OBSESSIONS AND COMPULSIONS? Common Obsessions Fear of being contaminated by germs or dirt or contaminating others Fear of causing harm to yourself or others Intrusive sexually explicit or violent thoughts and images Fear of losing or not having things you might need Order and symmetry: the idea that everything must line up just right. Superstitions; excessive attention to something considered lucky or unlucky
34 WHAT ARE THE FEATURES OF OBSESSIONS AND COMPULSIONS? Excessive cleaning, scrubbing, or washing of objects or body parts Excessive double-checking of things, such as locks, appliances, and switches. Repeatedly checking in on loved ones to make sure they re safe. Counting, tapping, repeating certain words, or doing other senseless things to reduce anxiety. Ordering, evening out, or arranging things just so. Accumulating junk Comer, Abnormal Psychology, 7e Common Compulsions
35 UNDERSTANDING ANXIETY DISORDERS: EXPLANATIONS FROM DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES Psychodynamic / Freudian: repressed impulses Classical conditioning: overgeneralizing a conditioned response Operant conditioning: rewarding avoidance Observational learning: worrying like mom Cognitive appraisals: uncertainty is danger Evolutionary: surviving by avoiding danger
36 Classical Conditioning and Anxiety In the experiment by John B. Watson and Rosalie Rayner in 1920, Little Albert learned to feel fear around a rabbit because he had been conditioned to associate the bunny with a loud scary noise. Sometimes, such a conditioned response becomes overgeneralized. We may begin to fear all animals, everything fluffy, and any location where we had seen those, or even fear that those items could appear soon along with the noise. The result is a phobia or generalized anxiety. Operant Conditioning and Anxiety We may feel anxious in a situation and make a decision to leave. This makes us feel better and our anxious avoidance was just reinforced. If we know we have locked a door but feel anxious and compelled to re-check, rechecking will help us temporarily feel better. The result is an increase in anxious thoughts and behaviors.
37 OBSERVATIONAL LEARNING AND ANXIET Y Experiments with humans and monkeys show that anxiety can be acquired through observational learning. If you see someone else avoiding or fearing some object or creature, you might pick up that fear and adopt it even after the original scared person is not around. In this way, fears get passed down in families.
38 COGNITION AND ANXIET Y Cognition includes worried thoughts, as well as interpretations, appraisals, beliefs, predictions, and ruminations. Cognition includes mental habits such as hypervigilance (persistently watching out for danger). This accompanies anxiety in PTSD. In anxiety disorders, such cognitions appear repeatedly and make anxiety worse.
39 EXAMPLES OF COGNITIONS THAT CAN WORSEN ANXIET Y: Cognitive errors, such as believing that we can predict that bad events will happen Irrational beliefs, such as bad things don t happen to good people, so if I was hurt, I must be bad Mistaken appraisals, such as seeing aches as diseases, noises as dangers, and strangers as threats Misinterpretations of facial expressions and actions of others, such as thinking they re talking about me
40 BIOLOGY AND ANXIET Y: AN EVOLUTIONARY PERSPECTIVE 1. Human phobic objects: Snakes Heights Closed spaces Darkness 2. Similar but non-phobic objects: Low places Open spaces Bright light 3. Dangerous yet non-phobic subjects: We are likely to become cautious about, but not phobic about: Guns Electric wiring Cars Evolutionary psychologists believe that ancestors prone to fear the items on list #1 were less likely to die before reproducing. There has not been time for the innate fear of list #3 (the gun list) to spread in the population.
41 BIOLOGY AND ANXIET Y: GENES Studies show that identical twins, even raised separately, develop similar phobias (more similar than two unrelated people). Some people seem to have an inborn highstrung temperament, while others are more easygoing. Temperament may be encoded in our genes. Genes and Neurotransmitters Genes regulate levels of neurotransmitters. People with anxiety have problems with a gene associated with levels of serotonin, a neurotransmitter involved in regulating sleep and mood. People with anxiety also have a gene that triggers high levels of glutamate, an excitatory neurotransmitter involved in the brain s alarm centers.
42 BIOLOGY AND ANXIET Y: THE BRAIN Traumatic experiences can burn fear circuits into the amygdala; these circuits are later triggered and activated. Anxiety disorders include overarousal of brain areas involved in impulse control and habitual behaviors. The OCD brain shows extra activity in the ACC, which monitors our actions and checks for errors. ACC = anterior cingulate gyrus
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder [PTSD]
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder [PTSD] About 10 to 35 percent of people who experience trauma not only have burned-in memories, but also four weeks to a lifetime of: repeated intrusive recall of those memories.
