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.)

If the child didn't develop schizophrenia, then the argument would be that you develop schizophrenia from your surroundings, it is learnt.
