Weakness: Data correlational
activity levels in the ventral striatum decreasing and the severity of negative symptoms are not cause and effect
could be caused by third unidentified variable
Weakness: research is over-simplistic
focuses on brain activity and size + symptoms as an explanation of SZ
consider other aspects like dopamine and life stressors
SZ doctors therefore take a holistic approach
Strength: high reliability
highly controlled environments like MRI
accurate readings of brain
can actually measure it
