- Summary
- Human experimental psychopathology, the scientific investigation of abnormal behavior by established laboratory and experimental techniques and procedures, is a new field whose contributors are mainly scattered throughout other areas of specialization, such as psychiatry, biometrics, neurophysiology, and psychology. This volume contains empirical and theoretical chapters both by active researchers in experimental psychopathology and by researchers in other fields relevant to experimental psychopathology. It is a significant step on the long and difficult road toward establishing an experimentally based psychopathology which will eventually provide (as physiology has done for much of medicine, and physics for much of engineering) a genuinely scientific basis for clinical practice. -- Book jacket.
