View the videos from the Films On Demand database.  Research dollars are scarce, and it is always controversial how best to spend them.  Imagine you are the chair of the budget committee for a large non-profit organization who specializes in mental health-related research.  You are in control of deciding how to allocate the research budget for the upcoming year.  Address the following as you respond:

• Which psychological disorder (select one) would you choose to receive the most funding for research?  
• Which psychological disorder (select one) would you choose to receive the fewest research dollars?
• Explain your reasoning for these decisions.
• Describe abnormal behavior in general as well as each of the disorders you have selected.

Your initial post must be a minimum of 200 words and utilize at least one scholarly source (e.g., the course textbook, a peer-reviewed article from the Ashford University Library, or a professional web source), cited according to APA format as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
