Reading in schizophrenic subjects and their nonsymptomatic first-degree relatives.
Previous studies have demonstrated eye movement abnormalities during smooth pursuit and antisaccadic tasks in schizophrenia. However, eye movements have not been investigated during reading. The purpose of this study was to determine whether schizophrenic subjects and their nonsymptomatic first-degree relatives show eye movement abnormalities during reading. Reading rate, number of saccades per...

متن کاملConvergent Evidence from Multimodal Imaging Reveals Amygdala Abnormalities in Schizophrenic Patients and Their First-Degree Relatives
BACKGROUND Shared neuropathological features between schizophrenic patients and their first-degree relatives have potential as indicators of genetic vulnerability to schizophrenia. We sought to explore genetic influences on brain morphology and function in schizophrenic patients and their relatives. METHODS Using a multimodal imaging strategy, we studied 33 schizophrenic patients, 55 of their...
متن کاملMultilevel Modeling of Cognitive Function in Schizophrenic Patients and Their First Degree Relatives.
We describe multilevel modeling of cognitive function in subjects with schizophrenia, their healthy first degree relatives and controls. The purpose of the study was to compare mean cognitive performance between the three groups after adjusting for various covariates, as well as to investigate differences in the variances. Multilevel models were required because subjects were nested within fami...
متن کاملSchizotypal Traits among Patients with Schizophrenia, Their Non-Psychotic First-Degree Relatives, and Normal Controls
Evidence has suggested that risk for schizophrenia is likely to occur in non-psychotic first-degree relatives of patients with schizophrenia. On the other hand, schizotypal personality disorder is genetically related to schizophrenia. The aim of this study was to compare schizotypal traits (i.e., positive schizotypy, negative schizotypy, cognitive disorganization, and impulsive nonconformity) a...
