Study Notes

  • Psychiatric nursing commonly uses several conceptual frameworks including psychobiology, developmental, behavioral, cognitive, and humanistic frameworks.
  • The psychobiology framework focuses on biological processes and their relation to human behavior, including brain structure, genetics, and environmental experiences.
  • The 1990s "Decade of the Brain" saw significant advancements in understanding brain functioning through biological research and technological advances.
  • Genetic research has shown a relationship between genetics and mental illnesses, influencing vulnerability to mental illness.
  • Brain imaging techniques like computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are used to study individuals with mental illness, aiding in diagnosis and treatment.
