Multipath Model of Mental Disorders
The multipath model operates under several assumptions:
• No one theoretical perspective is adequate to explain the
complexity of the human condition and the development of
mental disorders.
• There are multiple pathways to and influences on the development
of any single disorder. Explanations of abnormal behavior must
consider biological, psychological, social, and sociocultural
elements.
• Not all dimensions contribute equally to a disorder. In the case of
some disorders, current research suggests that certain etiological
forces have the strongest influence on the development of the
specific disorder. Additionally, our understanding of mental
disorders often evolves as further investigation provides new
insight into contributing factors.
• The multipath model is integrative and interactive. It acknowledges
that factors may combine in complex and reciprocal ways so that
people exposed to the same influences may not develop the same
disorder and that different individuals exposed to different factors
may develop similar mental disorders.
• The biological and psychological strengths and assets of a person
and positive aspects of the person’s social and sociocultural
environment can help protect against psychopathology, minimize
symptoms, or facilitate recovery from mental illness.
