"Psychopathology" is understood in the sense of "psychology of pathology". This perspective was ill-explored until the beginning of the XXth century since interest was focused on clinical description and classification in the first place. Psychopathology was then explored in wrong directions, such as the theory of "degeneration", a narrow mechanicism. It was enriched by psychoanalysis, behaviorism and, to a lesser extent, phenomenology. Henri Ey's organodynamism is the only comprehensive conception which is specifically French. Sociopathogenesis and psychopharmacology nowadays open new avenues.
“精神病理学”是从“病理学心理学”的意义上来理解的。直到20世纪初，这种观点都未得到充分探讨，因为当时人们首先关注的是临床描述和分类。当时精神病理学被引向了错误的方向，比如“退化论”这一狭隘的机械论。精神分析、行为主义以及在较小程度上的现象学使其得到了丰富。亨利·埃伊的器官动力论是唯一专门属于法国的全面概念。社会发病机制和精神药理学如今开辟了新的道路。
