Features: This book is primarily intended for students majoring in clinical medicine, preventive medicine, stomatology, forensic medicine, maternal and child health care, and clinical nursing, including both five-year and seven-year programs. To maintain the inherent continuity and systematic nature of the textbook while providing relevant reference materials for extracurricular learning, the editors believed it unnecessary to separately compile textbooks for the five-year and seven-year programs in medical-related fields. The specific requirements of this course for students at different levels and disciplines can be addressed through the development of a teaching syllabus. The book is divided into four parts, covering topics such as basic psychology, developmental psychology, clinical psychology, and rehabilitation psychology. The fundamental concept behind the compilation is to begin with the study of basic psychology, followed by the exploration of medical-related content, particularly clinical medicine, on this foundation, thereby enhancing the systematic nature of students' learning in this course. In addition to theories related to medical psychology, the book incorporates theoretical and clinical practice content, such as interpersonal relationships in medical practice, psychological issues of patients with somatic diseases, and psychological aspects of rehabilitation. To deepen students' understanding, the book also provides practical examples of psychological issues related to patients. These are the key features of the book.
