Paradigms of Latent Inhibition (LI) are inter-species and derived from learning theories. They
are considered as tools which allow the attentional processes to be studied. The absence of …

The prefrontal cortex is considered as a brain region important in the etiopathogenesis of
schizophrenic disorders. Based on converging results from different research areas, the …

Numerous studies have described attenuated event-related potential (ERP) component
amplitudes in schizophrenia (eg, P300, Mismatch Negativity (MMN), Error Negativity/Error …

This study investigates the neural correlates underpinning response inhibition using a
parametric ex‐Gaussian model of stop‐signal task performance, fit with hierarchical …

Prepulse inhibition (PPI) of the startle response is an important measure of information
processing deficits and inhibitory failure in schizophrenia patients. PPI is especially useful …

BACKGROUND: Schizophrenic patients exhibit impairments in prepulse inhibition (PPI) and
habituation of the acoustic startle response (ASR). Recent studies suggested that PPI …

Rationale The acoustic startle response is inhibited when the startling stimulus is preceded
by a weaker non-startling acoustic stimulus. This phenomenon, termed prepulse inhibition of …

Abstract Increased Reaction Time (RT) studies intra-subject variability is an emerging and
consistent finding in RT studies of schizophrenia. A group of 23 patients suffering from DSM …

Rationale Schizophrenia is characterized by a large variety of cognitive symptoms, among
which information processing deficits have been extensively studied. So far, these aspects …

Objectives: To examine error-related negativity (ERN) and correct response negativity
(CRN) in schizophrenia in light of two previous conflicting reports, and to determine their …
