To prepare: • Review this week's Learning Resources. Focus on the causal factors and viewpoints in Chapter 3 of Abnormal Psychology.
• Be sure to read the examples for each of the different causal viewpoints and factors.

With these thoughts in mind:
Post by Day 4 a description of one psychological disorder and explain the disorder from two or more causal viewpoints.
