Disconnection and cognitive dysmetria in schizophrenia.
Thi s editorial takes a perspective on this issue's articles afforded by theories of inference and learning in the brain. It starts with a brief précis of the disconnection hypothesis and ensuing cognitive dysmetria, given recent developments in theoretical and computational neurobiology. (Dysmetria is defined as " conditions where there is improper measuring of distances required for muscular ...
متن کاملImportant Cognitive Components of Domain-Specific Search Knowledge
Many users have acquired a sophisticated understanding of searching the Web in specific domains. For example, we often hear of users who can get amazing deals for electronic products on the Web. What knowledge do such users have, and how does it affect their search behavior? To address this question, we observed information retrieval experts in the domains of healthcare and online shopping, whi...
متن کاملSchizophrenia and cognitive dysmetria: a positron-emission tomography study of dysfunctional prefrontal-thalamic-cerebellar circuitry.
Patients suffering from schizophrenia display subtle cognitive abnormalities that may reflect a difficulty in rapidly coordinating the steps that occur in a variety of mental activities. Working interactively with the prefrontal cortex, the cerebellum may play a role in coordinating both motor and cognitive performance. This positron-emission tomography study suggests the presence of a prefront...
متن کاملMechanisms of internalization in schizophrenia: The roles of salience dysregulation and cognitive dysmetria
The positive symptoms of schizophrenia (hallucinations and delusions) are unique to the schizophrenic disorders, and are a particularly debilitating symptom of psychopathology (APA, 2000). Salience dysregulation theory attempts to explain the presence of hallucinations and delusions through the notion of augmented incentive salience, wherein irregular dopamine neurotransmission results in other...
متن کامل"Cognitive dysmetria" as an integrative theory of schizophrenia: a dysfunction in cortical-subcortical-cerebellar circuitry?
Earlier efforts to localize the symptoms of schizophrenia in a single brain region have been replaced by models that postulate a disruption in parallel distributed or dynamic circuits. Based on empirical data derived from both magnetic resonance and positron emission tomography, we have developed a model that implicates connectivity among nodes located in prefrontal regions, the thalamic nuclei...
