Unit 1 – Scientific Foundations of Psychology
Topic 1.1
How has the perspective on mental illness evolved in psychology over time?
From being viewed as a result of supernatural causes to understanding it as a result of biological and psychological factors.
The view shifted from biological determinism to seeing it as purely environmental.
It has always been seen as a product of biological and psychological factors.
There was no change in perspective; it was always treated with psychotherapy.
