Detailed explanation-1: -The biopsychosocial approach holds that the experience of pain is determined by the interaction between biological, psychological (e.g. cognition, behaviour, mood) and social (e.g. cultural) factors.
Detailed explanation-2: -The four main models to explain psychological abnormality are the biological, behavioural, cognitive, and psychodynamic models. They all attempt to explain the causes and treatments for all psychological illnesses, and all from a different approach.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Biopsychosocial model was first conceptualised by George Engel in 1977, suggesting that to understand a person’s medical condition it is not simply the biological factors to consider, but also the psychological and social factors .
Detailed explanation-4: -In Chapter 2, we will discuss three models of abnormal behavior to include the biological, psychological, and sociocultural models. Each is unique in its own right and no one model can account for all aspects of abnormality.
Detailed explanation-5: -Cognitive: The cognitive model focuses on problematic thoughts and attitudes as the main contributors to abnormal behavior. Issues within cognition are thought to result from illogical thought processes, irrational assumptions, or unreasonable outlooks.
