| Aim | Psychology is the science of the phenomena and conditions of mental life. Following W.James' definition of psychology, we can define Psychopathology as "the discipline that studies the pathologized-denormalized phenomena of mental life". There are two basic approaches to researching and understanding psychopathological phenomena in psychiatry and clinical psychology: Descriptive approach and Explanatory approach(es). The discipline of psychopathology is essentially built on a descriptive approach. Because unless the descriptive basis of psychopathological phenomena (subjective experience(s)) is revealed clearly enough, efforts to explain these phenomena will be largely speculative. Descriptive psychopathology is largely nourished by the phenomenological tradition of thought. Phenomenology aims to suspend the presuppositions and presuppositions regarding the phenomenon (epoche), allowing the phenomenon to reveal itself as what it is, and to describe what is revealed. In this course, training will be given on how to handle and describe different phenomena in the psychopathology spectrum with a phenomenological approach. This discussion and description will be done both at the cross-sectional level and at the process level. |
| Course Content | This course contains; Discussion of the concepts of psyche, pathos, logic, normal, abnormal,Explanation by comparing explanatory and descriptive psychopathology, which are two basic approaches in the discipline of psychopathology.,General evaluation of descriptive psychopathology through the phenomenological tradition of thought,a) Discussing the course of the concept of psychosis in the history of psychopathology b) Discussing the concept of psychosis from a phenomenological perspective ,a) Discussing the clinical features of Schizophrenic Disorder based on the DSV-V classification system b) Addressing Schizophrenia-Spectrum Disorders based on the DSM-V classification system ,Discussing the concepts of emotion, mood, affect, temperament with a phenomenological attitude,Addressing the clinical features of Bipolar Disorder based on DSM-V,Addressing the clinical features of Depression and Related Disorders based on DSM-V,Addressing anxiety phenomenologically with a descriptive approach and an explanatory approach,Addressing Anxiety and Anxiety-Related Disorders based on DSM-V,a) Discussing the concept of dissociation with a phenomenological descriptive and explanatory approach b) Discussing the clinical features of Dissociative Disorders based on DSM-V ,Categorical and longitudinal approaches to Personality Disorders,Interaction of Personality (and Personality Disorders) with Other Psychopathological Phenomenon,General evaluation of the educational process. |

| 1- They learn how to understand psychopathological phenomena with a descriptive, phenomenological approach. 2- They learn the classification principles of the described psychopathological phenomena. 3- They learn the basic clinical features of classified psychopathological phenomena. 4-In addition to these three basic acquisitions, students taking the course are also expected to gain an awareness of the phenomenological foundations of the therapeutic relationship. Although it is not the primary purpose of the course, this awareness is extremely important in clinician training. Because empathy, which is the basic carrier of the therapeutic relationship, can only be realized with a phenomenological approach and attitude. If one thinks sufficiently about the above-mentioned basis of phenomenology, the function of phenomenology in establishing empathy will be understood | 10, 13, 15, 16, 18, 19, 20, 23, 4, 9 | A, D, E |
