Features: Clinical psychology is an important branch of applied psychology. In the Penguin Dictionary of Psychology, edited by Reber, clinical psychology is described as follows: It studies all forms of human abnormal behavior, explores the evidence, evaluation, classification, treatment, prevention, and scientific research of these behaviors. In recent years, the concepts and ideas of individual psychological assistance, crisis intervention, guidance, and promotion, as well as family psychological therapy, have been proposed, giving clinical psychology a renewed meaning. In 1999, Professor Huangfu En edited and internally printed Clinical Psychology, primarily for the teaching of master's students. Over the past four years, the book has been highly praised by a wide range of teachers, students, and readers. To make the book suitable for the teaching requirements of undergraduate students, we have adjusted and edited some chapters based on the original text, supplemented with new content, making it suitable for the teaching of medical school specialists, undergraduates, and even graduate students. It is also suitable for clinical medical workers and administrative personnel engaged in medical management, as well as for a broad audience who are passionate about medicine and psychology. The book is divided into three parts: Chapters 1 to 4, the basic theories of clinical psychology; Chapters 5 to 10, the symptomatology and major clinical psychological issues of clinical psychology; Chapters 11 to 13, clinical psychological counseling, therapy, and behavior correction.
