Paul Broca, Carl Wernicke, Roger Sperry
Disorders are a result of a misbalance in the brain (whether it is neurotrasnmitters or hormones)
Biopsychosocial Approach
Acknowledges the person as a whole and tries to look at all of the patient’s circumstances. Looks at biological, psychological, and social factors to understand a person’s behavior
Modern Psychology
Disorders are as a result of genetic predisposition, a misbalance in the brain, maladaptive thoughts, and culture
Cognitive Approach
States that thought processes impact the way people behave
study how an emotion such as fear affects one’s thinking
Jean Piaget, Albert Bandura
Disorders are a result of maladaptive thoughts

Charles Darwin
Anxiety helped us survive (natural selection)
Humanistic Approach
Believes that humans have free will and the ability to grow
All individuals are stiving to reach self actualization with this approach
Abraham Maslow, Carl Rogers
Anxiety disorders are as a result of not having the environment to grow (not having an unconditional positive regard) and therefore being unable to reach self-actualization.
Psychodynamic Approach
Focuses on the study of the unconscious mind. It states that behavior is determined by past experiences stored in the unconscious mind.
Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung, Erik Erikson
Could explain that anxiety disorders are a result of unconscious thoughts from childhood or the instability of the ego and not being able to balance between the id and superego.
Sociocultural Approach

Solomon Asch, Stanley Migram
Anxiety occurs as a result of norms that exist within a culture.
