A* student’s (2023) hand-written class notes on the definitions of abnormality in the psychopathology module - AQA A-Level Psychology, Paper 1 (7182/1). These notes include both AO1 and AO3 points for: deviation from social norms; failure to function adequately; statistical infrequency; deviation from ideal mental health. I have included some summary questions to help test your knowledge. Happy revising and good luck! :)
