Disappearance of the unmasking effect of temporally pre-presented lipreading cues on speech recognition in people with chronic schizophrenia.

Fig. 1. Group-mean percent-correct recognition of the target keywords for the health-control participants (top panel) and patient participants (middle panel) as a function of signal-to-masker ratio (SMR) along with the group-mean best-fitting psychometric functions under the no-priming condition (open triangles and dash curve), false-priming condition (open squares and dash curve), and true-priming condition (filled circles and solid curve). Bottom panel: Comparisons in mean percent-correct recognition of target keywords as a function of the SMR under the no-priming condition between patient participants with auditory verbal hallucination (filled circles and solid curve) and patient participants without hallucination (open circles and dash curve).
