All illness can be explained on the basis of aberrant somatic bodily processes, such as biochemical imbalances or neurophysiological abnormalities.  This model assumes that psychological and social processes are largely irrelevant to the disease process.                                              

• Engage in a discussion by responding to the following:

• • In two to three paragraphs, state whether or not you agree that psychological and social processes are irrelevant to the disease process. 
  • Provide a detailed analysis that supports your position.

Support your work with scholarly academic resources, textbooks, or other sources provided.  Quoting or paraphrasing from any source in discussion posts requires APA format by including an in-text citation and listing the reference at the end of the post.
