Imagine you have been asked to write an article for an academic journal on the complexities of schizophrenia disorder.

Write a 850 – to 1,050-word article on the development, progression, physiological symptoms, and behavioral features of schizophrenia disorder.

Conduct research in the University Library to locate 2 peer-reviewed journal articles on schizophrenia, to use as supporting documentation in your article.  Be sure to cite both articles within the paper.

Review the articles that you have selected, and highlight specific details related to the followin.

Organize your paper as follows:

Development of the disorder…………… Think in terms of the early signs and how it develops

Progression of the disorder……… Think in terms of the possible causes (genetic and environmental) and the prevalence of the disorder       

Physiological symptoms………Think in terms of the physical symptoms of the disorder

Behavioral features……..    List two specific symptoms from the DSM-5 criteria for schizophrenia.  Describe a brief scenario for each symptom describing what one might observe that would indicate the presence of the symptom.

For example a symptom of bipolar is a decrease in the need for sleep. A behavior that might be observed is:

Dan’s mother had mentioned that the house might need painting in the near future.  He insisted on painting his mother’s house immediately.  He started painting at 9:00 in the morning and was still painting at 2:00 a.m.  He stated that he was wide awake and planned to finish it before sunrise.
