It is the belief that the self, is a correct state of being. When a self moves past this stage, into "self actualization" it realizes "we have a problem Houston!" And that whole self, sees its dilemna, no longer able to hide from it due to "fragmentation avoidance."

Normalcy is the collected level agreed on by societal member, as to how much fragmentation of self, is acceptable, in order to avoid the truth, that the self actualized self can see. We call this "society."

Also, when a self, fragments beyond the level most people can hide from the truth with, we call that "a state of disorder, or illness." And those who are normal, pity the mentally ill, hoping one day they can return to the normal state of fragmentation.

To the self actualized, this is quite hypocritical, if they are advanced enough in their path. To the transcended (beyond self) they believe those mentally ill selves realize that their is a problem, because they are not accepted by the fragmentation norm (society) and believe those ill people are more open to the truth, than the self righteous. Which is why you find a man (yes, a man) like Jesus commiserating with "sinners" (ill people) while chastising the norm (accepted avoidant fragmentors)

What is a normative theory in psychology?

It basically is the philosophical approach which says that normalcy should be regarded as the working standard of what mental health really is. It forms the foundation for the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (aka, the "DSM") which is a core textual tool of the mental health industry. The DSM maintains that one of the key aspects of all mental disorders is their statistical rarity in the general population -- and by the normative theory, that qualifies them as disorders. Critics of normative theory interpret it as a license to promote oppressive conformity, equating an emphasis on normalcy with conformity.
