Much work in the cognitive neuroscience of schizophrenia has focused on attention,
memory, and executive functioning. To date, less work has focused on perceptual …

The purpose of this chapter is to demonstrate that the study of visual processing
abnormalities in schizophrenia offers a unifying perspective on the etiology, development …

This theme section on vision science and schizophrenia research demonstrates that our
understanding of the disorder could be significantly accelerated by a greater adoption of the …

OBJECTIVE: Schizophrenia is associated with deficits in higher-order processing of visual
information. This study evaluated the integrity of early visual processing in order to evaluate …

BACKGROUND: Abnormalities in early-stage visual processing might contribute to observed
higher neurocognitive deficits in schizophrenia, but to date no clear link has been …

These findings highlight the importance of sensory processing deficits, in addition to higher
cognitive dysfunction, for understanding the pathophysiology of schizophrenia …

The third meeting of the Cognitive Neuroscience Treatment Research to Improve Cognition
in Schizophrenia (CNTRICS) focused on selecting promising measures for each of the …

Studies examining visual processing in schizophrenia have provided inconsistent results. In
this study, the authors measured static and dynamic visual contrast sensitivity (CS) in …

Abnormal visual scanning of faces, objects, and line drawings has been observed in
patients with schizophrenia and is thought to reflect neurocognitive impairment. In this study …

BACKGROUND:: Schizophrenia patients have information-processing deficits that can be
quantified using visual backward masking. The visual information processing system is …
