Understanding the true nature of mental illness is essential for
interpreting disparate research results, establishing accurate
diagnostic profiles, setting robust research agendas, and
optimizing therapeutic interventions. Psychopathology currently
lacks a unifying framework. Mental Illness Defined: Continuums,
Regulation, and Defense provides such a framework by filling the
knowledge gap. Continuums, as opposed to numerous discrete
entities, characterize mental illness. Impaired regulation fosters
extreme expressions of mental illness continuums, an occurrence
that can be compensated for by "cognitive regulatory control
therapies." Defenses tend to moderate behavior, although excessive
levels foster dysfunction, as with personality disorders. The model
presented aligns with neuroscience and other relevant data, thereby
placing psychopathology on a more scientific foundation to advance
the aims of both researchers and treatment providers.
