PSYC 220 - Developmental Psychopathology

Semester Offered: Second Semester
Full Course
Credits: 4 credits
Attribute: 4SS

Developmental psychopathology provides an integrative framework for conceptualizing the course of typical and atypical development across the lifespan. Within this course, we will explore the dynamic interplay of a range of biopsychosocial factors that influence child and adolescent development and that serve as either protective factors against or risk factors for the development of psychopathology during these developmental periods. Examples include pervasive developmental disorders; attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder; conduct problems; and anxiety, mood, and eating disorders.
