87

Flat affect Inappropriate Actions Catatonia Disruptive social behavior
88
Onset and Development of Schizophrenia
89
Onset and Development of Schizophrenia
Statistics on schizophrenia: 1 in 100 people, no national boundaries, both males and females. Onset of the disease: Can be sudden (sometimes as result of stress or develop gradually)
90
Onset and Development of Schizophrenia
Symptoms Process/Reactive Positive Symptoms: hallucinations, disorganized speech (word salad) inappropriate laughter, tears, rage Negative symptoms: toneless voice, expressionless face, mute or rigid bodies. Chronic (process) schizophrenia: when it is slow-developing then recovery is doubtful. Usually and incapacitating social withdrawal occurs. Acute (reactive) schizophrenia: if well-adjusted and it’s a response to stress, recovery more likely. Usually have positive symptoms that respond better to drug therapy.

Understanding Schizophrenia
93
Understanding Schizophrenia Brain Abnormalities: Dopamine Overactivity
Dopamine – D4 dopamine receptor: intensifies brain signals in schizophrenia-creating positive symptoms Dopamine blocking drugs lessen the symptoms. Drugs that increase D4 receptors like cocaine and amphetamines can intensify them. Glutamate: another theory that high levels of glutamate may kick-start it. (excitatory neurotransmitter)
94
Abnormal Brain Activity and Anatomy
Brain Scans show: -low brain activity in frontal lobes. -noticeable decline in the brain waves that reflect synchronized neural firing in the frontal lobes -enlarged, fluid-filled areas-shrinking of cerebral tissue. (see twin pic in book)

Teacher Information Types of Files Animation
This presentation has been saved as a “basic” Powerpoint file. While this file format placed a few limitations on the presentation, it insured the file would be compatible with the many versions of Powerpoint teachers use. To add functionality to the presentation, teachers may want to save the file for their specific version of Powerpoint. Animation Once again, to insure compatibility with all versions of Powerpoint, none of the slides are animated. To increase student interest, it is suggested teachers animate the slides wherever possible. Adding slides to this presentation Teachers are encouraged to adapt this presentation to their personal teaching style. To help keep a sense of continuity, blank slides which can be copied and pasted to a specific location in the presentation follow this “Teacher Information” section.
113
Teacher Information Unit Coding
Just as Myers’ Psychology for AP 2e is color coded to the College Board AP Psychology Course Description (Acorn Book) Units, so are these Powerpoints. The primary background color of each slide indicates the specific textbook unit. Psychology’s History and Approaches Research Methods Biological Bases of Behavior Sensation and Perception States of Consciousness Learning Cognition Motivation, Emotion, and Stress Developmental Psychology Personality Testing and Individual Differences Abnormal Psychology Treatment of Abnormal Behavior Social Psychology
114
Teacher Information Hyperlink Slides - This presentation contain two types of hyperlinks. Hyperlinks can be identified by the text being underlined and a different color (usually purple). Unit subsections hyperlinks: Immediately after the unit title and module title slide, a page can be found listing all of the unit’s subsections. While in slide show mode, clicking on any of these hyperlinks will take the user directly to the beginning of that subsection. Bold print term hyperlinks: Every bold print term from the unit is included in this presentation as a hyperlink. While in slide show mode, clicking on any of the hyperlinks will take the user to a slide containing the formal definition of the term. Clicking on the “arrow” in the bottom left corner of the definition slide will take the user back to the original point in the presentation. These hyperlinks were included for teachers who want students to see or copy down the exact definition as stated in the text. Most teachers prefer the definitions not be included to prevent students from only “copying down what is on the screen” and not actively listening to the presentation. For teachers who continually use the Bold Print Term Hyperlinks option, please contact the author using the address on the next slide to learn a technique to expedite the returning to the original point in the presentation.
115
Teacher Information Continuity slides
Throughout this presentation there are slides, usually of graphics or tables, that build on one another. These are included for three purposes. By presenting information in small chunks, students will find it easier to process and remember the concepts. By continually changing slides, students will stay interested in the presentation. To facilitate class discussion and critical thinking. Students should be encouraged to think about “what might come next” in the series of slides. Please feel free to contact me at with any questions, concerns, suggestions, etc. regarding these presentations. Kent Korek Germantown High School Germantown, WI 53022
