How does the Biopsychosocial model differ from the biomedical model?
Answers:
A biomedical model looks into the physical realm to find the cause of illness -- a biopsychosocial model also considers one's psyche, environment, stress factors and more - offering a more comprehensive analysis of the global issues that factor into the medical concern at hand.

biomedical focuses on diseases, physical conditions/illnesses + drug treatments. biopsychosocial is more "holistic", ie looks at the "whole" person, his environment, family, friends,physical, his social background + influences on the problem, like his level of education, job, and other aspects of his lifestyle and psychological/mental well-being
