Course release date: 10/09/2023
About the Course
Self-injury is a serious behavioral problem in which an individual purposefully inflicts damage to his or her body through methods such as cutting, scratching, burning, or other activities in the absence of suicidal intent. Research indicates high prevalence rates of self-injury, with between 13% and 45% of adolescents reporting having purposely self-injured at least once, and 4% to 28% of adult clinical populations reporting a lifetime occurrence of the behavior (Bentley, et al., 2014; Plener et al., 2016). Common methods of self-injury include skin cutting, scratching to the point of drawing blood, head banging or hitting, burning, and inserting sharp objects into the skin, among other methods. This behavior can result in serious medical complications and is a known risk factor for later suicidal behavior.
- Psychopharmacology in Behavioral Health Medicine 4
Course release date: 10/09/2023
About the Course
Clinical psychopharmacology has evolved over the past decade. The primary drive for its global adoption in the medical community stems from its unique objective of exploring the physiological influence of medications on the behavior of animals, and by extension humans. In addition, the number of psychopharmacological studies exploring the psychotropic nature of drugs and the possibilities of instituting the findings from these studies in primary care settings has doubled. This has birthed the emergence of a strong link between neurosciences and psychiatry, founded solidly on the biological knowledge of neuronal connectivity, neurotransmitter physiology, drug mechanism of action, neuronal circuitry, and psychotropic drug targets in the brain.
