在一项对 68 种状况信念的初步研究中,对“精神障碍”的外行概念进行了调查,其中 47 种状况对应于 DSM-IV 精神障碍。没有接受过变态心理学正规教育的本科生根据“精神障碍”的技术定义中提出的特征对状况进行评分,并判断这些状况是否为精神障碍。这些特征由三个维度组成:社会偏差、有害功能障碍和特殊性,其中最后两个维度与精神障碍的判断强烈且独立地相关(R = 0.83)。外行和 DSM-IV 对“精神障碍”的理解表现出适度的趋同。 (C) 2002 年 Wiley 期刊公司
Lay concepts of "mental disorder" were investigated in a pilot study of beliefs about 68 conditions, 47 of which corresponded to DSM-IV mental disorders. Undergraduates who had no formal education in abnormal psychology rated the conditions on features proposed in technical definitions of "mental disorder" and judged whether the conditions were mental disorders. The features composed three dimensions-social deviancy, harmful dysfunction, and peculiarity-the last two of which were strongly and independently associated with judgments of mental disorder (R = 0.83). Lay and DSM-IV understandings of "mental disorder" showed moderate convergence. (C) 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
