Part -1:

o Provide an example of how specific abnormal behaviors were viewed in the past in the workplace (e.g., postpartum depression).
o Has this perspective changed from the past? If so, how?
· How can unusual behaviors be classified and identified without negative consequences to people?
The materials found in the M.U.S.E. may help you with this assignment such as the article Abnormal Versus Normal.
