Neurodevelopmental models suggest schizophrenia arises from early brain development disturbances. These events, combined with genetics and later factors, increase the risk of developing schizophrenia.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Psychiatry
  • Developmental Psychology

Background:

  • Schizophrenia is a prevalent mental illness affecting 15 per 100,000 individuals annually.
  • Understanding the origins of schizophrenia is crucial for effective treatment and prevention.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To critically review existing evidence supporting neurodevelopmental models of schizophrenia.
  • To synthesize current research on the etiological factors contributing to schizophrenia development.

Main Methods:

  • Comprehensive literature search conducted using Medline and PsychINFO databases.
  • Systematic evaluation of article relevance and citation tracking to identify pertinent studies.

Main Results:

  • Substantial evidence supports neurodevelopmental models for schizophrenia etiology.

  • Aetiological events during prenatal development can disrupt central nervous system (CNS) development.
  • These early disruptions, alongside genetic and environmental factors, predispose individuals to schizophrenia in early adulthood.

    • Conclusions:

    • Significant advancements have been made in schizophrenia research over the last two decades.
    • Further investigation into neural development markers is essential for a deeper understanding of schizophrenia.
    • Continued research promises to improve outcomes for individuals with this disabling condition.
