The biopsychosocial model is an interdisciplinary approach that examines human behavior and mental health by considering biological, psychological, and social influences. It highlights how genetic inheritance, brain chemistry, individual cognition, societal norms, and cultural contexts interact to shape an individual's well-being. This model contrasts with the medical model by promoting a holistic treatment strategy for psychological disorders, emphasizing the importance of a personalized approach that addresses the complex interplay of various factors affecting mental health.
