  • Developments in Research, Developments in Thinking and Developments in Practice features highlight current events and the latest research methodologies and findings.
  • The World Around Us features highlight contemporary issues such as binge drinking in college.
  • Unresolved Issues features demonstrate how far we have come and how far we have yet to go in our understanding of psychological disorders.
  • Thinking Critically about DSM-5 boxes introduce the revised DSM and encourage you to consider the implications of the changes.
  • Extensive case studies profile individuals with various disorders from diverse backgrounds who have much in common with all of us.
  • Detailed coverage of the new National Institute of Mental Health Research Domain Criteria (or “RDoC”) approach helps you understand this framework which plays a central role in research on abnormal psychology.
