Overview
This is an advanced, three credit undergraduate and graduate course that focuses on the emergence and expression of
psychopathology across the lifespan. The purpose of the course is to familiarize students with current knowledge of
psychopathology and its etiological origins across all stages of life. We will adopt a strong developmental psychopathology
perspective, which is infused throughout the class. According to this perspective, psychopathology cannot be understood as a set
of adevelopmental static entities. Rather, patterns of maladjustment that we often refer to as psychopathological almost always
emerge from complex transactions between biological vulnerabilities (genetic, neural, hormonal) and environmental risk factors
(family coercion, deviant peer group affiliations, neighborhood criminality) over time. Thus, psychopathology occurs in a developing
individual, and his or her interpersonal relationships, and cannot be defined, identified, or understood without consideration of the
normal course of development. Furthermore, both typical and atypical development reflect influences of a vast array of biological,
psychological, and contextual variables transacting across the lifespan. Note that this is not a treatment course, so we will not cover

https://osu.instructure.com/courses/34056/assignments/syllabus 2/11
prevention or intervention, except insofar as they inform our understanding of etiology, which is sometimes the case.
Traditionally, courses about psychopathology have been taught by focusing almost exclusively on behaviors displayed by
individuals who are diagnosed with different disorders, as defined by the prevailing nomenclature of the time (usually the current
version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (http://www.dsm5.org/Pages/Default.aspx) . This is a descriptive
approach that does not account for or explain the causes of mental illness. Although we will cover descriptive aspects of
psychopathology, we will spend much more time on neurobiological underpinnings of mental illness and how they interact with
environmental risk factors, following from profound advances in psychiatric genetics and neuroimaging that have occurred in the
past 15 or so years. These advances make all of our jobs (mine as an instructor and yours as students) more difficult than they once
were. However, the payoff is large, as scientific advances are finally being made that are helping us understand the causes of
psychopathology. Understanding causes is a a necessary antecedent to effective treatment.
Objectives
This course is intended to familiarize you with:
1. Foundational knowledge regarding:
major sources of influence (genetic, neural, hormonal, familial, cultural) on development and ways they transact across the
lifespan to promote psychopathology.
research designs and methods used to study psychopathology across the lifespan, and complexities and controversies
confronted in doing such research.
major approaches taken to defining and classifying psychopathology across the lifespan, and limitations of each
2. Major classes of psychopathology including information regarding:
prevalence, epidemiology, morbidity, mortality, and phenomenology.
classification, including relevant Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (http://www.dsm5.org/Pages/Default.aspx)
(DSM-5) diagnostic categories, factor-analytic approaches, and the Research Domain Criteria (http://www.nimh.nih.gov/research-
priorities/rdoc/index.shtml) (RDoC).
empirically supported etiological theories, including factors that contribute to development, maintenance, progression, and
amelioration of psychopathology across the lifespan.
We will make use of lectures, readings, video, course discussion, and weekly discussion forums (see below) to promote mastery of
course content.
Expected Outcomes
When you complete this course sequence, it is my expectation that you will:
understand major research designs and methods used to study psychopathology, and the strengths and limitations of each.

https://osu.instructure.com/courses/34056/assignments/syllabus 3/11
have knowledge of major approaches to classification of psychopathology (DSM-5 (http://www.dsm5.org/Pages/Default.aspx) ,
factor analytic models, RDoC (http://www.nimh.nih.gov/research-priorities/rdoc/index.shtml) ), and their attendant strengths and
weaknesses.
be able to describe all major forms of psychopathology covered in this course. Thus, you should have a solid working
knowledge of DSM-5 (http://www.dsm5.org/Pages/Default.aspx) diagnostic criteria and associated information for each disorder.
You will also be able to describe aspects of each disorder that are not well represented in the DSM
(http://www.dsm5.org/Pages/Default.aspx) . Included in your knowledge should be information about development, epidemiology
(e.g., typical age of onset and risk factors such as age, sex, ethnicity, socioeconomic status [SES], and physical health factors,
familial inheritance patterns, molecular genetic vulnerabilities, course and prognosis, subtypes, and common comorbid
conditions).
understand current etiological theories and their supporting evidence (or lack thereof) for each disorder. Where possible, I
seek to arrive at an integrative model of developmental pathways to each disorder that include genetic, hormonal, and neural
vulnerabilities; familial, social, and cultural risk factors; and their complex interactions across time.

17 4/26 IN CLASS FINAL EXAM
*When available. Notes render best in Google Chrome.
Undergraduate Exams
All exams, including the final, will be multiple choice and worth 50 points. Each will contribute 25% to your grade. None will be
cummulative. Students are expected to take the exams on the scheduled dates. You must have my permission to miss an exam, and
I will only provide it in cases where illness or other documentable problems interfere with your ability to prepare for or complete the
exam. In order to be excused for an exam and take a make-up, you must contact me before, not after the exam. Questions
regarding exam scores must be raised with me either after class or during office hours; lecture time will not be spent discussing
exams. You are responsible for all information covered in the text, readings, and lectures. Sometimes these will overlap, other times
they will not. Please do not ask me what will be on the exam. I will not tell you, as that would make it something other than an exam.
Graduate Exams
All exams, including the final, will consist of essay questions and be worth 50 points. Each will contribute 25% to your grade.
Students are expected to take the exams on the scheduled dates. You must have my permission to miss an exam, and I will only

responsible for all information covered in the text, readings, and lectures. Sometimes these will overlap, other times they will not.
Web Discussion Forum
In lieu of a weekly 'lab' sections, you are required to participate in web discussions about psychopathology-related topics. Web
discussions comprise 25% of your grade. These discussions are intended to push your thinking beyond what's covered in class. All
students are required to post a response each week, and are encouraged to engage in discussions with one another. Your postings
are due by midnight on Fridays. You are also required to engage with at least one other student in the class by posting a reaction to
their initial posting. These reactive discussion postings are due by midnight on Sundays. Late responses are not accepted. Students
who do not post by these deadlines will receive a 0 for the week. You will be graded on each discussion by the CA based on on the
quality of your web comments. Please direct your questions about discussion posts to her/him. Grades will be assigned on the
following scale:
no web participation 0
poor response quality 1
below average 2
average 3
high quality or average quality + 4

Undergraduate Evaluation
Your performance will be evaluated based on your scores on the two mid-term exams (25% each), the final exam (25%), and your
participation/thoughtful comments in the web discussions (25%). Each midterm will cover approximately 1/3 of the material in the
course. Exams will be multiple choice. Grades will be assigned as outlined in the table below. I may adjust cut-offs downward and
thereby increase grades if evidence indicates that exams were more difficult than intended. I will never adjust cut-offs upward.
A > 91%
A- 90-91%
B+ 88-89%
B 75-87%
B- 70-74%
C+ 65-69%
C 55-64%
C- 50-54%
D+ 47-49%
D 42-48%
D- 40-41%
F < 40%
Additional Writing Requirement for Graduate Students
In addition to these course requirements, graduate students will be assigned a 10-12 page paper (double-spaced; excluding
references) in which they discuss the etiology of a disorder of their choice, from a developmental psychopathology perspective.
Consistent with the objectives of this course, this paper should address (1) genetic vulnerabilities, neural vulnerabilities, other
relevant biological predispositions; (2) environmental risk factors; and (3) how they interact to eventuate in psychopathology.
Maximum credit will be given only for papers that are framed transactionally. Topics must be approved by me ahead of time, and are
due at the final exam.
Graduate Evaluation
Graduate students' performance will be evaluated based on your scores on the two mid-term exams (20% each), the final exam
(20%), your participation/thoughtful comments in the web discussions (10%), your participation in class discussions (10%), and the
quality of your final paper (20%).
