In the December 1996 issue of the ARCHIVES, Servan-Schreiber et al¹ revealed the results of the application, in a clinical setting, of their pivotal work on the neural network of context information processing in schizophrenia.^1-2

We replicated this study in a sample of consecutively admitted patients with schizophrenia (n=15, 12 men, 3 women; age, 32.86±8.16 years [mean±SD]; length of illness, 8.53±6.32 years [mean±SD]; years of education, 11.06±3.26 [mean±SD]) and healthy controls (n=15) matched for sex, age, and years of education (29.46±5.13 years and 13±3.20 [mean±SD], respectively), using the modified version of the A-X Continuous Performance Test.¹ All patients had relapsing multiepisode schizophrenia, and were able to live in the community with maintenance neuroleptic therapy. The task was administered to the patients while they were in a stable state of their illness, immediately before hospital discharge.

We implemented a computerized modified version of the A-X Continuous Performance Test using a standard . . . [Full Text of this Article]
