Schizophrenia is thought to result from a complex interplay of genetic, environmental, and neurobiological factors, rather than being randomly acquired. While individuals with a family history of the disorder have a higher risk, environmental triggers such as stress, trauma, and substance abuse can also play a significant role in its onset. Therefore, it is not purely random but influenced by a combination of hereditary and external factors.

Why do psychologists study children that have been adopted?
It allows psychologists to identify the differences between nature (what you are born with and cannot be changed, such as genetics) and nurture (what you learn from your surroundings and your environment.) For example, if the child's parents have schizophrenia and the child was adopted for some reason, it would be interesting to see if the child developed schizophrenia later on in life. If the child didn't develop schizophrenia, then the argument would be that you develop schizophrenia from your surroundings, it is learnt. However, if the child did develop schizophrenia, then it is more likely to do with genetics and therefore cannot be changed. Schizophrenia is just an example. It can be applied to lots of areas such as criminal behaviour, aggressive behaviour, mental disorders, illnesses and so forth.
