INTRODUCTION: Basal physiologic parameters such as cerebral blood volume (CBV) and cerebral blood flow (CBF) are important markers for studying the neurodysfuction of schizophrenia (SZ) (1). Previously these parameters were measured mostly by PET or SPECT and fewer MR studies have been completed; however, MR provides advantages in terms of noninvasiveness and higher spatial resolution.

Empirical work on children’s ability to understand spatial coordinates has focused on the factors that increase children’s proficiency. When interpreting performance, it should be considered that presenting a coordinate task on a horizontal surface might constrain the responses that children make because some target positions are further away from the child than others. Vertical task presentati...

Clinical symptoms of 25 patients were assessed using the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). Problem symptoms were matched to appropriate treatment groups including: ‘attitudes’ (simple introductory cognitive concepts), positive symptoms, negative symptoms, attenti...
