		<description><![CDATA[An ever growing number of studies feature brain mapping to illustrate structural differences in the brain based on grouping those with and without a given disorder. Techniques such as structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can aid in researchers understanding of differences in shape and volume of various brain regions. Group differences are often found, yet [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=psychinaction.wordpress.com&blog=3492978&post=137&subd=psychinaction&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Human and animal studies have found that brains go through substantial
synaptic pruning during childhood, removing approximately half of all synapses until puberty. While the pruning of synapses is a natural process, some researchers have theorized that schizophrenia arises from excessive pruning (Siekmeier &#38; Hoffman, 2002). Presuming schizophrenia is a disorder of disruptions in neural connectivity [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=psychinaction.wordpress.com&blog=3492978&post=114&subd=psychinaction&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A recent report published by SAMHSA addresses the issue of self-disclosure regarding mental illness.
Research has already shown that the more familiar people are with others who have different form of mental illness, the more their attitudes regarding mental illness will improve.
The problem is that in the process, those who self-disclose fear being ostracized, losing their [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=psychinaction.wordpress.com&blog=3492978&post=110&subd=psychinaction&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

A recent article in the New York Times reported results from an APA study that concluded that abortion does not cause mental illness.
