Research dollars are scarce, and it is always controversial how best to spend them. Imagine you are the chair of the budget committee for a large non-profit organization who specializes in mental health-related research. You are in control of deciding how to allocate the research budget for the upcoming year. Address the following as you respond:
• Which psychological disorder (select one) would you choose to receive the most funding for research?
• Which psychological disorder (select one) would you choose to receive the fewest research dollars?
• Explain your reasoning for these decisions.
• Describe abnormal behavior in general as well as each of the disorders you have selected.
