According to the transactional approach to human development:

they are as individuals at any particular point in development.
b. Individuals with a given psychological diagnosis may differ greatly from each
other in their symptom patterns and severity.
c. Psychological disorders evolve from developmental processes that were initially
normal and healthy.
d. Psychological disorders occur when a genetic vulnerability for a particular
disorder is combined with stressful life events, which are beyond the individual's
ability to cope.
e. Psychological disorders do not exist as such; rather children and adolescents may
experience situationally-induced problems in functioning that usually disappear
when their life circumstances improve.
