What is Statistical Infrequency?
- According to this definition, Abnormality is any behaviour that is statistically infrequent in the population and falls outside of Statistical Norms.
- RARE BEHAVIOUR!
- Example: Autism affects 1 or 2 people in every 1000 therefore statistically infrequent, therefore abnormal; and IQ above 145 is also very rare (1 in 1000) therefore statistically infrequent, therefore abnormal.
