Ahmik grew up on a Native American reservation in Saskatchewan, Canada, but is attending a college in the United States that has a primarily Caucasian population. Because he wanted to get the whole college experience, he is living in a dormitory on campus. An unusually heavy snowstorm hits the campus and shuts it and everything around it down for several days. On the second day, Ahmik locks himself in his room and refuses to come out, because he is afraid he is becoming a monster and might eat his friends if the roads don't open up soon so they can get more food. Everyone is confused, because they have plenty of food and see no reason Ahmik should think he is turning into a monster that eats people. Ahmik's hall monitor, who is taking an abnormal psychology class, decides he must have schizophrenia. Based on this information, is she right?

The available options to the question are:

A) She could be, but because Ahmik comes from a different culture, culture-bound disorders must also be taken into consideration.

B) Yes. Talking about nonhuman and nonanimal monsters is one of the key diagnostic criteria for schizophrenia.

C) No. Ahmik probably has a paranoid personality disorder.

D) No. Ahmik probably has a somatoform disorder.

A) She could be, but because Ahmik comes from a different culture, culture-bound disorders must also be taken into consideration.

Explanation:

Schizophrenia is a psychological condition or serious mental disorder in which people interpret reality abnormally, and it may results to hallucinations, delusions, and extremely disordered thinking. While Ahmik characteristics shows Schizophrenia, culture bound disorder needs to be considered as well.

Hence, the right answer is She (Monitor Hall) could be right, but because Ahmik comes from a different culture, culture-bound disorders must also be taken into consideration.
