      ABSTRACT

      Psychiatry, clinical psychology, and other professions that deal with psychopathology, abnormal behavior, and personal psychological problems naturally try to distinguish among the different kinds of phenomena and behavior they encounter. Basic research about the causes and courses of psychopathology and about appropriate treatment depends on sorting the various psychological problems that professionals see into distinct categories. However, there is considerable controversy about how to do that and how those categories are to be understood.
