Why do you support the categorical or dimensional approach


Discussion

The current DSM(5) supports a dimensional approach to abnormality, whereas the previous DSM(IV-TR) supported a categorical approach. Some psychologists have suggested that dimensional model (where behavior exists on a continuum and "abnormal" is simply an extreme form of normal behavior) may be more accurate. Do you support the categorical or the dimensional approach? Which one do you feel is best for classifying personality disorder? Explain.

The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
