Schizophrenia
This research-based activity introduces students to schizophrenia—a complex mental health disorder affecting cognition, emotion, and behavior. Through structured research using NAMI, NIMH, and Mayo Clinic sources, students identify symptoms, risk factors, and treatment options while exploring antipsychotic medication side effects like Tardive Dyskinesia. Students organize their findings into a Mental Health Reference Guide aligned with DSM-5 categories. This resource is ideal for Counseling & Mental Health II, Abnormal Psychology, or any psychology class focused on psychiatric conditions and stigma reduction.
