When a patient afflicted with schizophrenia hears inner voices something is taking place inside the brain that prevents the individual from perceiving real voices. A simple electronic application may help the patient learn to shift focus. Via Dimitris Agorastos

It is increasingly evident that schizophrenia is a disorder characterized by disturbances in the "music of the brain hemispheres." The authors observed relatively slower oscillations and reduced cross-phase synchrony (for example, peak of theta coinciding with peak of gamma) in schizophrenia patients compared to healthy study participants.

This video was short but did a great job of depicting the symptoms of schizophrenia and touched on things that can be done with help people with this disorder, such as, taking their medication and being aware that there are people and resources that can help them. This video depicted some delusions, which are false beliefs of reality (Lilienfeld, 2010) This video is a reasonable source of showing what its like for a schizophrenic and depicted very well the symptoms of this disorder. It stated how sometimes people are okay with this order, but can spiral out of control in an instance. It showed how the anxiety can cause distance between people and those that they care about. The stick figure in this video was a boy but did not account for how the disorder effects men and women. There was no account for gender differences or sexual orientation.

1. This was an effective simple way to describe schizophrenia. It is fun to watch but also informative. 2. They say that Mark stopped taking his meds and sometimes he's okay when he doesn't but sometimes it gets bad. That suggests that the meds do help (Tartakovsky, 2010). It also shows him hallucinating a wolf chasing him and a whale eating him. That correlates with what Myers (2014) says, that schizophrenia can lead to hallucinations and anxiety about things that only the victim of the illness can see or feel (Myers, 2014). 3. There was no diversity that was addressed in this video. 4. Myers, D. G. (2014). Exploring psychology in modules: With dsm5 update. S.l.: Worth Pub.
