APFCC+-+Janowsky

APFCC: Janowsky
To study the interaction of noradrenalin on depression The researchers gave participants and drug that reduced the levels of noradrenalin in the synaptic gap. Within minutes the participants reported feeling profoundly depressed and experienced feelings of self-hate and suicide wishes. Noradrenalin has an affect on depression, and may be a contributing etiology While noradrenalin levels can affect depression, there is no cause and effect relationship between the two. Word Document - ‘Abnormal Notes.doc’ ‘Evidence includes Janowsky's (1972) study, which found that physostigmine – a drug that specifically decreases levels of noradrenaline – caused subjects to feel profoundly depressed and experience feelings of self-hate and suicidal wishes within minutes of taking the drug’
