This document discusses different definitions of abnormality in psychology. It notes that defining something as abnormal implies it is undesirable and in need of change, so the term must be used carefully. Three definitions are presented: statistical infrequency, where a trait is abnormal if it is rare; deviation from social norms, where behavior is abnormal if it violates unwritten social rules; and lack of objectivity, where an abnormal definition should not depend on opinions and should produce consistent results. Context is important for the social norms definition, considering the degree and importance of any norm violations.

Abnormal Psychology: Concepts of NormalityMackenzie
Notes for section 5.1 of my psych textbook for the option of "Abnormal Psychology" on the I.B. HL Psychology test. All about cultural norms, normal vs. abnormal, diagnosing processes,validity and whatnot.
What constitutes "normal" behaviour in a given social setting is that which is prevalent, anticipated, and generally accepted by its members. It allows individuals to engage with their environment and fulfil their everyday requirements; it is also practical and versatile. A condition of normalcy is one in which one is healthy and disease-free.
The best Rules For Distinguishing the Normal from Pathological (updated 2023)...intel-writers.com
Distinguishing between normal and pathological
conditions is crucial in various fields, including medicine, psychology, and behavior analysis. While the specific rules may vary depending on the context, there are general guidelines and principles that can aid in this distinction. Here, we will discuss some of the best rules for distinguishing the normal from the pathological:
1.Statistical Deviation: The statistical deviation rule suggests that behaviors or characteristics that deviate significantly from the statistical norm can be considered pathological. This approach involves comparing an individual’s behavior or traits to a relevant reference group and identifying deviations that are statistically significant. However, it is important to note that statistical deviation alone may not be sufficient to determine pathology as it does not account for individual differences and cultural variations.
2.Functional Impairment: The presence of functional impairment is a critical criterion for distinguishing between normal and pathological conditions. If a behavior or condition significantly impairs an individual’s ability to function effectively in their daily life, work, relationships, or other important domains, it may be indicative of pathology. Functional impairment takes into account the impact on an individual’s overall well-being and their ability to meet societal expectations and demands.
3.Distress and Subjective Experience: The subjective experience of distress or discomfort is another important factor in determining pathology. If an individual experiences significant subjective distress or reports feeling uncomfortable, anxious, or unhappy due to their behavior or condition, it suggests that it may be pathological. However, it is important to consider cultural and individual variations in the experience and expression of distress.
4.Duration and Persistence: The duration and persistence of a behavior or condition are essential considerations in distinguishing between normal and pathological. Generally, behaviors or conditions that persist over a longer period or are chronic in nature are more likely to be considered pathological. This criterion helps differentiate transient or temporary fluctuations from more enduring and clinically significant patterns.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
