Answer to Question 1

Answer: Positive symptoms represent additions to normal behaviors. Hallucinations are perceptions that occur in the absence of a sensory stimulus. Delusions are incorrect beliefs that are resistant to change. Negative symptoms are represented by behaviors that are missing, such as poverty of speech or flattened emotional response.
