| (discussed in [N])? In what way is it considered a hybrid model?
1. LEVEL OF FUNCTIONING. Characterizes personality disorders in terms of impairments. In personality and functioning and pathological traits.

Mesolimbic pathway is a subcortical part of the brain involved in the processing of salience and reward.

Healing involves mobilizing a patient’s kin to suppot him or her through the crisis and reintegrating the patient into a positive social support network
3. Persuasive model: Conflict resolution model: Suggests that rituals can transform the meaning of symptoms for patients, diminishing their pain
4. Clinical model: Faith the patient has in the traditional healer to provide a cure for the symptoms if sufficient
