Reflective essay
As a way of exploring abnormality as it is viewed in the psychological community and society at large, each of you will be asked to select one disorder (not the same one as your pamphlet). Then you will need to find ONE article in a scholarly journal about that disorder ( a comprehensive review article from a journal such as Psychological Bulletin may be useful, but any recent article about an empirical study will work). Next, you will need to find some reference to that disorder in popular culture ( a film, television episode, song, magazine article, etc. You have two resources at this point – Next, using the information from these two sources as well as from at least three (3) other sources – you will write up a summary of the features of the disorder, how views on this disorder from the scientific and popular media differ and what your reflections are (feelings, thoughts, etc).
