Processing sentence context in women with schizotypal personality disorder: an ERP study.
Accumulating evidence suggests that schizophrenic patients do not use context efficiently. Also, studies suggest similarities in clinical and cognitive profiles between schizophrenic and schizotypal personality disorder (SPD) individuals, and epidemiological studies point to a genetic link between the two disorders. This study examined electrophysiological correlates of processing sentence cont...
متن کاملContext-processing deficits in schizotypal personality disorder.
Research suggests that schizotypal personality disorder (SPD) is a part of the spectrum of schizophrenia-related illnesses. This article hypothesizes that a deficit in the representation and maintenance of context is a core cognitive disturbance in schizophrenia and that SPD individuals should demonstrate context-processing deficits. To test this hypothesis, the authors administered 3 versions ...
متن کاملSemantic dysfunction in women with schizotypal personality disorder.
OBJECTIVE This study examined whether early or late processes in semantic networks were abnormal in women with a diagnosis of schizotypal personality disorder. The N400 component of the EEG event-related potentials was used as a probe of semantic processes. METHOD Word pairs were presented with short and long stimulus-onset asynchronies to investigate, respectively, early and late semantic pr...
متن کاملAn MRI study of superior temporal gyrus volume in women with schizotypal personality disorder.
OBJECTIVE An abnormal superior temporal gyrus has figured prominently in schizophrenia research, and left superior temporal gyrus volume has been shown to be smaller in male subjects with schizotypal personality disorder. This is the first structural magnetic resonance imaging study to examine a group of female subjects with schizotypal personality disorder. METHOD The superior temporal gyrus...
متن کاملElectrophysiological correlates of language processing in schizotypal personality disorder.
OBJECTIVE This study examined whether the electrophysiological correlates of language processing found previously to be abnormal in schizophrenia are also abnormal in schizotypal individuals. The authors used the N400 component to evaluate language dysfunction in schizotypal individuals. METHOD Event-related potentials were recorded in 16 comparison subjects and 17 schizotypal individuals (wh...
