The assumption that there is a significant connection between
normal psychological and biological differences and the development
of psychological disorders has grown in recent years and research
in this area has developed rapidly. Written by psychologists with
expertise in both the areas of abnormal and differential
psychology, this textbook aims to integrate evidence and ideas from
healthy personality and temperament on the one hand and
psychological disorders on the other. This is achieved by viewing
personality traits as predispositions to disorder, and by
questioning how far the causes of various disorders can be seen as
an extension or exaggeration of processes underlying normal
personality or temperament. These main themes are discussed using a
biological perspective, based on the theory that personality can be
deconstructed into a number of basic dimensions (of biological
origin) that also act as vulnerability factors for disorder. This
is a second level textbook for undergraduate students of
psychology, but it can also be used by health professionals and
their trainees, psychiatrists, clinical psychologists and nurses.
