It is never easy to define what is normal or what is the quality of normal. In specific terms, we can say that normal is everything that adjusts the parameters correctly established for certain phenomena, people or lifestyles. Normality, then, will be the existence of normal elements and adjusted to those parameters.
Usually, the notion of normality is applied to situations, events or phenomena related to society. This, however, is very particular since when we talk about social issues it is extremely difficult define what is normal and what is not, as opposed to what happens with nature or the observable empirically. At the same time, today's societies are so rich and diverse inside that it is impossible to conceive of normal parameters if differences and variables must be recognized for each reality.
On the other hand, when speaking of empirical phenomena such as physical, chemical, biological, the normality parameters are much easier to define than in the first case. Thus, for this type of phenomena, the sciences establish a number of characteristic elements that are observed in most cases. Once these parameters have been established, each future
observation may result in elements or variables of greater or lesser normality. For example, when looking at the feeding from some animal, it is considered that there are parameters of normality according to this herbivorous, carnivorous or omnivore.The normality parameters are, without a doubt, a inventionartificial of the human being to put order and organize the world around him. As we have said, many aspects of the daily life of the human being are not, however, so easily definable because they are not the representation from the idea of 'stimulus-answer 'if not they are much more complex than that.
