Evaluation and Diagnosis; all required articles; and review the PSY645 Fictional Sociocultural Case Studies document. One of the most important aspects of developing competence in psychopathology is to be as honestly and completely aware as possible of your personal attitudes toward people who have mental health conditions.

Through this awareness, we are better able to challenge our own biases and prejudicial views in order to be more open to the findings within scholarly research. For your initial post in this discussion, choose one of the three case studies from the PSY645 Fictional Sociocultural Case Studies document, and write a detailed description of your uncensored personal observation of the patient depicted.
