Read “Conceptualizing Psychiatric Disorders Using ‘Four D’s’ of Diagnoses (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.”. Note that many professionals utilize the four “Ds” to determine abnormality:
Deviance: Are the behaviors/feelings deviant?
Dysfunction: Do the behaviors/feelings interfere with the individual’s ability to function in daily life?
Distress: Does the individual experience distress due to the behaviors/feelings?
Danger: Are the behaviors/feelings harmful to the individual or those around him/her?

Review the textbook.
