The psychology of abnormal behaivior. This term has largely been replaced by clinical psychology when referring to the professional practice of abnormal psychology. (Stratton, Peter A Student Dictionary of Psychology, London: Edward Arnold, 1988, Ref150.321 St8 Reference Unit, University Library)
Abnormal psychology studies the nature of psychopathology, its causes, and its treatments. Of course the definition of what constitutes 'abnormal' has varied across time and across cultures. Individuals also vary in what they regard as normal or abnormal behavior (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abnormal_psychology)

It is a consolidation of information gathered from many different sources both online and from books. I hope that you find it informative and helpful.
A course in Abnormal Psychology by David L. Gilles-Thomas, Ph.D. http://ccvillage.buffalo.edu/Abpsy/ [Retrieved January 15, 2015] This web site contains lecture notes for an undergraduate, honors-level course in Abnormal Psychology. It was written in the late 1980's, and as such relies on the American Psychiatric Association's now outdated third (revised) edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (now in its 4th edition). Therefore, the specifics of the classification system and diagnostic criteria described in these lectures will be different from those of today.
