Answer to Question 1

B
Biological theories view schizophrenia as a brain disorder. Social theories view schizophrenia to be caused by the effects of the environment; psychological theories view the cause of the disease to be a character flaw combined with poor family relationships; and psychobiological theories do not exist.
