Inhibitory control deficits are well documented in schizophrenia, supported by impairment in
an established measure of response inhibition, the stop-signal reaction time (SSRT). We …

Patients with schizophrenia show response inhibition deficits equal to or greater than those
seen in impulse-control disorders, and these deficits contribute to poor outcome. However …

Background. Inhibitory deficits have been frequently reported in schizophrenia. Such deficits
are usually associated with activities of prefrontal cortex and related networks. An …

Background. The ability to inhibit inappropriate or unwanted actions is a key element of
executive control. The existence of executive function deficits in schizophrenia is consistent …

BackgroundThe clinical picture of schizophrenia is frequently worsened by manifestations of
impulsivity. However, the neural correlates of impulsivity in this disorder are poorly known …

The Stop Signal Task (SST) is a measure that has been used widely to assess response
inhibition. We conducted a meta-analysis of studies that examined SST performance in …

BackgroundImpairments in inhibitory function have been found in studies of cognition in
schizophrenia. These have been linked to a failure to adequately maintain the task demands …

Schizophrenia patients have prominent deficits in information processing that can be
detected by measures of prepulse inhibition (PPI) of the startle response. Deficient PPI in …

BACKGROUND: Inhibitory control is central to executive functioning and appears deficient in
schizophrenia. However, it is unclear how inhibitory control is affected, what the underlying …

Background: The magnitude of the startle eyeblink response is reduced if the startle eliciting
stimulus is shortly preceded by another stimulus. There is evidence that schizophrenia …
