"Normal" Personality
[ send me this essay ]
3 pages in length. The concept of normality is perhaps one of the most difficult to define in any capacity, yet it is even more challenging to characterize when the mind is involved. To be normal in the broadest sense is one who possesses "soundness of mind needed for a responsible, punishable act, one who is competent to make a contract, a sale or a will" (Binder, 1957, p. 132); in short, a normal person falls in line with the status quo of that particular society. However, this all-purpose definition fails to take into account the unique components of each and every person that can, in all truthfulness, categorize all human beings as abnormal to some extent. This reality is constantly challenging the psychiatric community to classify and reclassify what is considered normal in the capacity of treating patients and bearing witness to an offender's competence to stand trial. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
