A strength of this model is that it provides a quantification of abnormality. However, a limitation is that statistical norms can change throughout time and some statistically abnormal features may be desirable. ]]> 2018-03-19 15:48:14 UTC https://padlet.com/tranch/zjpot09bu6u2/wish/243582908 Ideal mental health model https://padlet.com/tranch/zjpot09bu6u2/wish/243583155
