BIOLOGICAL MODEL( WJEC)
  1. ASSUMPTIONS
    1. Evolutionary approach
      1. adaptive
        1. EXAMPLE: altruism
        2. E.E.A
        3. Neurotransmitters
          1. nerve cells i.e neurons
            1. presynaptic vesicle
              1. post synaptic
                1. synaptic cleft
                2. examples:
                  1. serotonin and depression
                    1. dopamine and schizo
                  2. localisation of the brain
                    1. outer cortex= cerebral cortex for higher cognitive functions
                      1. split into 4 lobes
                        1. frontal lobe e.g.personality,problem solving
                          1. temporal lobe = hearing
                            1. occipital lobe = vision and colour
                              1. parietal lobe = pain and touch
                          2. DRUG THERAPY
                            1. ANTI ANXIETY
                              1. Stress, phobias
                                1. reduce adrenaline and noradremanline
                                  1. BETA BLOCKERS reduce the above
                                2. Benzodiazepines e.g. increase GABA which reduces anxiety.
                                3. ANTIDEPRESSANTS
                                  1. depression
                                    1. SSRIS e.g. prozac
                                      1. increase reuptake of serotonin
                                    2. ANTIPSYCHOTICS
                                      1. psychotic disorders e.g schizo
                                        1. decrease dopamine in the brain to reduce hallucinations
                                          1. newer atypical drugs e.g. chlozaril
                                      2. KEY STUDY = RAINE
                                        1. METHOD
