The subject of my Senior Research Paper is the psychology of addictions and disorders. Through this topic, I wish to explore what distinguishes the two, how are they intertwined, and the effect these abnormalities have on an individual. In particular, I plan to examine abnormalities including Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, learning disorders such as ADD & ADHD, and alcohol and substance addictions.
In order to thoroughly and successfully explore the many aspects of this topic, certain questions must be proposed. These include; what are the origins of certain addictions and disorders? Are they hereditary or can certain circumstances influence their origin? What effect can an addiction and disorder have on an individual both physically and physically?
