Answer to Question 1

Researchers and practitioners still refer to Birren and Renner's (1980) classic argument that mentally healthy people have the following characteristics: a positive attitude toward the self, an accurate perception of reality, a mastery of their environment, autonomy, personality balance, and growth and self-actualization. One argument is that, to the extent that these factors are missing or absent, mental disorder or psychopathology becomes more likely.
