Q

cons of the DSM-IV

A

The criteria are so specific that many people don’t fit into any categories

people who receive the same diagnosis may share only certain symptoms but look very different from one another

Doesn’t provide a way of capturing the severity of the disorder

Q

why is severity of the behaviour important?

A

people without OCD can be conscientious, but people with OCD are extremely, maladaptivly conscientious

thus, it doesn’t make sense to make conscientiousness a criteria for OCD, but it does make sense to make the severity of it a criteria

Q

social and personal implications of diagnostic labelling

A

we might start to see the label as describing the individual, rather than describing the behavior

we all have preconceptions of how they’ll act, can’t judge behaviour objectively

mild to moderate brain atrophy and enlarged ventricles can lead to schizophrenia abnormalities in the thalamus,
1011
Brain atrophy
loss/deterioration of neurons in the cerebral cortex and limbic system
1012
ventricles
cavities that contain cerebrospinal fluid
1013
what does the thalamus do
collects and routes sensory information to other parts of the brain
1014
dopamine hypothesis
The symptoms of schizophrenia are produced by overactivity of dopamine in the areas of the brain that regulate emotional expression, motivated behavior, and cognitive functioning
1015
evidence for dopamine hypothesis
schizophrenics have more dopamine receptors on their neuron membranes The receptors seem to be over reactive to dopamine stimulation Antipsychotic drugs that reduce dopamine tend to be more effective to treat schizophrenia

1543
waxy flexibility
their limbs can be moulded by another person into grotesque positions that they will then maintain for hours
1544
T/F catatonia can still be diagnosed today
true
1545
what are the categories of schizophrenia we use today?
type one schizophrenia Type two schizophrenia
1546
type one schizophrenia | what is the name for the type of symptoms it has, and what are the symptoms?
has positive symptoms delusions, hallucinations, disordered speech and thinking
1547
type two schizophrenia | what is the name for the type of symptoms it has, and what are the symptoms?
has negative symptoms lack of emotional expression, loss of motivation, absence of normal speech
1548

type two schizophrenics have poor functioning prior to hospitalization, poor outcome following treatments type one schizophrenics have good functioning prior to the breakdown and a better prognosis for eventual recovery
1549
T/F there is strong evidence that there is a genetic predisposition to schizophrenia
true
1550
how can brain abnormalities cause schizophrenia
mild to moderate brain atrophy and enlarged ventricles can lead to schizophrenia abnormalities in the thalamus,
1551
Brain atrophy
loss/deterioration of neurons in the cerebral cortex and limbic system
1552
ventricles
cavities that contain cerebrospinal fluid
1553
what does the thalamus do
collects and routes sensory information to other parts of the brain
1554
dopamine hypothesis
The symptoms of schizophrenia are produced by overactivity of dopamine in the areas of the brain that regulate emotional expression, motivated behavior, and cognitive functioning
1555
evidence for dopamine hypothesis
schizophrenics have more dopamine receptors on their neuron membranes The receptors seem to be over reactive to dopamine stimulation Antipsychotic drugs that reduce dopamine tend to be more effective to treat schizophrenia
1556
what psychological factors can contribute to schizophrenia
schizophrenics maybe can't filter out irrelevant stimuli
1557
T/F emotional over reactivity can be a vulnerability factor for schizophrenia

what are the two hypotheses about the relation between poverty and schizophrenia?
social causation hypothesis Social drift hypothesis
1562
social causation hypothesis
Low income people have more stress, and thus develop schizophrenia more often

social drift hypothesis
as people develop schizophrenia, their functioning deteriorates, it's harder for them to work, they drift down the social economic ladder into poverty
1564

what are the categories of schizophrenia we use today?
type one schizophrenia Type two schizophrenia
1816
type one schizophrenia | what is the name for the type of symptoms it has, and what are the symptoms?
has positive symptoms delusions, hallucinations, disordered speech and thinking
1817
type two schizophrenia | what is the name for the type of symptoms it has, and what are the symptoms?
has negative symptoms lack of emotional expression, loss of motivation, absence of normal speech

1820
how can brain abnormalities cause schizophrenia

what are the categories of schizophrenia we use today?
type one schizophrenia Type two schizophrenia
2302
type one schizophrenia | what is the name for the type of symptoms it has, and what are the symptoms?

what are the categories of schizophrenia we use today?
type one schizophrenia Type two schizophrenia
2572
type one schizophrenia | what is the name for the type of symptoms it has, and what are the symptoms?
has positive symptoms delusions, hallucinations, disordered speech and thinking
2573
type two schizophrenia | what is the name for the type of symptoms it has, and what are the symptoms?
has negative symptoms lack of emotional expression, loss of motivation, absence of normal speech
2574

type two schizophrenics have poor functioning prior to hospitalization, poor outcome following treatments type one schizophrenics have good functioning prior to the breakdown and a better prognosis for eventual recovery
2575
T/F there is strong evidence that there is a genetic predisposition to schizophrenia
true
2576
how can brain abnormalities cause schizophrenia
mild to moderate brain atrophy and enlarged ventricles can lead to schizophrenia abnormalities in the thalamus,
2577
Brain atrophy

ventricles
cavities that contain cerebrospinal fluid

they alternate between stuporous states and agitated excitement May exhibit waxy flexibility in the stuporous states
3055
waxy flexibility
their limbs can be moulded by another person into grotesque positions that they will then maintain for hours
3056
T/F catatonia can still be diagnosed today
true
3057
what are the categories of schizophrenia we use today?
type one schizophrenia Type two schizophrenia
3058
type one schizophrenia | what is the name for the type of symptoms it has, and what are the symptoms?
has positive symptoms delusions, hallucinations, disordered speech and thinking
3059
type two schizophrenia | what is the name for the type of symptoms it has, and what are the symptoms?
has negative symptoms lack of emotional expression, loss of motivation, absence of normal speech
3060
how do type two schizophrenics fare differently from type one schizophrenics
type two schizophrenics have poor functioning prior to hospitalization, poor outcome following treatments type one schizophrenics have good functioning prior to the breakdown and a better prognosis for eventual recovery
3061
T/F there is strong evidence that there is a genetic predisposition to schizophrenia
true
3062
how can brain abnormalities cause schizophrenia
mild to moderate brain atrophy and enlarged ventricles can lead to schizophrenia abnormalities in the thalamus,
3063
Brain atrophy
loss/deterioration of neurons in the cerebral cortex and limbic system
3064
ventricles
cavities that contain cerebrospinal fluid
3065
what does the thalamus do
collects and routes sensory information to other parts of the brain
3066
dopamine hypothesis
The symptoms of schizophrenia are produced by overactivity of dopamine in the areas of the brain that regulate emotional expression, motivated behavior, and cognitive functioning
3067
evidence for dopamine hypothesis
schizophrenics have more dopamine receptors on their neuron membranes The receptors seem to be over reactive to dopamine stimulation Antipsychotic drugs that reduce dopamine tend to be more effective to treat schizophrenia
3068
what psychological factors can contribute to schizophrenia
schizophrenics maybe can't filter out irrelevant stimuli
3069
T/F emotional over reactivity can be a vulnerability factor for schizophrenia
true
3070
expressed emotion
criticism Hostility Overinvolvement
3071
T/F schizophrenics who were treated were more likely to relapse if their families were high in expressed emotion
true
3072
T/F schizophrenia is more prevalent in lower socioeconomic populations
true
3073
what are the two hypotheses about the relation between poverty and schizophrenia?
social causation hypothesis Social drift hypothesis
3074
social causation hypothesis
Low income people have more stress, and thus develop schizophrenia more often
3075
social drift hypothesis
as people develop schizophrenia, their functioning deteriorates, it's harder for them to work, they drift down the social economic ladder into poverty
3076
T/F culture has an affect on the prevalence of schizophrenia

3083
T/F somatic symptom disorder patients are not very suggestible
false They are very suggestible
3084
in what kind of culture is there a higher incidence of somatic symptom disorders?
cultures that discourage open discussion of emotions Cultures that stigmatize psychological disorders
3085
dissociative disorders
disorders that involve a major dissociation of personal identity or memory
3086
what are the three forms that dissociative disorders can take
dissociative amnesia Dissociative fugue Dissociative identity disorder
3087
dissociative amnesia
A person responds to a stressful event with extensive, selective memory loss
3088
dissociative fugue
person loses all sense of personal identity. They moved to a new place and establish a new identity
3089
dissociative identity disorder
two or more separate personalities coexist in the same person
3090
primary/host personality
The personality that appears more often than the others in a dissociative identity disorder
3091
alters
The other personalities (not the host personality) in a dissociative identity disorder
3092
in dissociative identity disorder, how can the personalities differ?
they have their own sets of memories and behaviors They can have different ages and genders The personalities may not know about the existence of the others There can be physiological differences between the personalities
3093
trauma – dissociation theory
developing new personalities occurs in response to severe stress
3094

true
3327
what are the categories of schizophrenia we use today?
type one schizophrenia Type two schizophrenia
3328
type one schizophrenia | what is the name for the type of symptoms it has, and what are the symptoms?
has positive symptoms delusions, hallucinations, disordered speech and thinking
3329
type two schizophrenia | what is the name for the type of symptoms it has, and what are the symptoms?
has negative symptoms lack of emotional expression, loss of motivation, absence of normal speech
3330
how do type two schizophrenics fare differently from type one schizophrenics
type two schizophrenics have poor functioning prior to hospitalization, poor outcome following treatments type one schizophrenics have good functioning prior to the breakdown and a better prognosis for eventual recovery
3331
T/F there is strong evidence that there is a genetic predisposition to schizophrenia
true
3332
how can brain abnormalities cause schizophrenia
mild to moderate brain atrophy and enlarged ventricles can lead to schizophrenia abnormalities in the thalamus,
3333
Brain atrophy
loss/deterioration of neurons in the cerebral cortex and limbic system
3334
ventricles
cavities that contain cerebrospinal fluid
3335
what does the thalamus do
collects and routes sensory information to other parts of the brain
3336
dopamine hypothesis
The symptoms of schizophrenia are produced by overactivity of dopamine in the areas of the brain that regulate emotional expression, motivated behavior, and cognitive functioning
3337
evidence for dopamine hypothesis
schizophrenics have more dopamine receptors on their neuron membranes The receptors seem to be over reactive to dopamine stimulation Antipsychotic drugs that reduce dopamine tend to be more effective to treat schizophrenia

what psychological factors can contribute to schizophrenia
schizophrenics maybe can't filter out irrelevant stimuli
3339
T/F emotional over reactivity can be a vulnerability factor for schizophrenia

what are the two hypotheses about the relation between poverty and schizophrenia?
social causation hypothesis Social drift hypothesis
3344
social causation hypothesis
Low income people have more stress, and thus develop schizophrenia more often
3345
social drift hypothesis
as people develop schizophrenia, their functioning deteriorates, it's harder for them to work, they drift down the social economic ladder into poverty
3346
T/F culture has an affect on the prevalence of schizophrenia

what are the categories of schizophrenia we use today?
type one schizophrenia Type two schizophrenia
3814
type one schizophrenia | what is the name for the type of symptoms it has, and what are the symptoms?

ventricles
cavities that contain cerebrospinal fluid

true
4083
what are the categories of schizophrenia we use today?
type one schizophrenia Type two schizophrenia
4084
type one schizophrenia | what is the name for the type of symptoms it has, and what are the symptoms?
has positive symptoms delusions, hallucinations, disordered speech and thinking
4085
type two schizophrenia | what is the name for the type of symptoms it has, and what are the symptoms?
has negative symptoms lack of emotional expression, loss of motivation, absence of normal speech
4086

type two schizophrenics have poor functioning prior to hospitalization, poor outcome following treatments type one schizophrenics have good functioning prior to the breakdown and a better prognosis for eventual recovery
4087
T/F there is strong evidence that there is a genetic predisposition to schizophrenia
true
4088
how can brain abnormalities cause schizophrenia
mild to moderate brain atrophy and enlarged ventricles can lead to schizophrenia abnormalities in the thalamus,
4089
Brain atrophy
loss/deterioration of neurons in the cerebral cortex and limbic system
4090
ventricles
cavities that contain cerebrospinal fluid
4091
what does the thalamus do
collects and routes sensory information to other parts of the brain
4092
dopamine hypothesis
The symptoms of schizophrenia are produced by overactivity of dopamine in the areas of the brain that regulate emotional expression, motivated behavior, and cognitive functioning
4093
evidence for dopamine hypothesis
schizophrenics have more dopamine receptors on their neuron membranes The receptors seem to be over reactive to dopamine stimulation Antipsychotic drugs that reduce dopamine tend to be more effective to treat schizophrenia
4094
what psychological factors can contribute to schizophrenia
schizophrenics maybe can't filter out irrelevant stimuli
4095
T/F emotional over reactivity can be a vulnerability factor for schizophrenia

true
4098
T/F schizophrenia is more prevalent in lower socioeconomic populations
true
4099
what are the two hypotheses about the relation between poverty and schizophrenia?
social causation hypothesis Social drift hypothesis
4100
social causation hypothesis
Low income people have more stress, and thus develop schizophrenia more often
4101
social drift hypothesis
as people develop schizophrenia, their functioning deteriorates, it's harder for them to work, they drift down the social economic ladder into poverty
4102
T/F culture has an affect on the prevalence of schizophrenia
false
4103
T/F there's a greater chance of recovery from schizophrenia in developed nations then in developing nations
false Likelihood of recovery is greater in developing nations
4104
personality disorders
