In this module you learned different theoretical perspectives for
understanding the development of childhood psychopathology.
These perspectives are not mutually exclusive but rather can
interact to cause or exacerbate a disorder. For example, a person
may have a genetic predisposition to develop a disorder, and
under the right environmental conditions, may not develop the
disorder. Or, just the opposite, a person may not have a genetic
propensity for a disorder, but under deleterious environmental
conditions may develop the disorder nonetheless.
Discuss the similarities and differences between two of the
major theoretical approaches, including biomedical theories,
psychodynamic theories, behavioral theories, cognitive theories,
and social-cognitive theories. Be sure to identify major theorists
when appropriate.
