• P: one behaviour that can be explained by neurotransmitters is the symptoms of schizophrenia.
• E: research has shown high levels of neurotransmitter dopamine are linked to development of schizophrenic symptoms, such as hallucinations or delusions. Drugs that block dopamine receptors have been found to reduce these symptoms.
• E: this suggests dopamine plays a key role in regulating perception and thought processes. When dopamine activity gets too high, can lead to abnormal brain functioning, may result in distorted thinking seen in schizophrenia.
• L: therefore, assumption that neurotransmitters influence behaviour is supported, imbalances in dopamine levels directly affect mental health and lead to psychological disorders like schizophrenia
