Presentation
This discipline pretends to be the first approach to psychopathology in childhood and adolescence, helping students understand the dynamics that characterize the continuum between normativity and pathology. In this context, students learn not only the basics of psychopathological diagnostics but also to analyze cases in light of contextual, dimensional, dynamic, interactive, and developmental approaches.

LO2. Describe its epidemiology, comorbidity, and differential diagnosis.
LO3. Recognize specificities of psychopathological symptoms, integrating them into the contributions of the developmental approach to psychopathology for the classification of psychological disorders in childhood and adolescence.
