Abstract/OtherAbstract:
In order to obtain further insight into hemispheric dysfunction in schizophrenics, two experiments were conducted employing event-related potential (ERP) recording during dichotic detection tasks as well as syllable discrimination tasks. Results concerning ERPs derived from the T3 and T4 regions are reported. Based on results in the two experiments, it is concluded that schizophrenics display a dysfunction of the left hemisphere, as well as a dysfunction in the ingration mechanism of both hemispheres. It is also speculated that the left-hemisphere dysfunction in schizophrenics is particularly correlated with positive psychotic symptoms.
