Hyperactivation balances sensory processing deficits during mood induction in schizophrenia.

While impairments in emotion recognition are consistently reported in schizophrenia, there is some debate on the experience of emotion. Only few studies investigated neural correlates of emotional experience in schizophrenia. The present functional magnetic resonance imaging study compared a standard visual mood induction paradigm with an audiovisual method aimed at eliciting emotions more auto...

Visual sensory processing deficits in first-episode patients with Schizophrenia.

Evidence for sensory prediction deficits in schizophrenia.

OBJECTIVE Patients with schizophrenia experiencing delusions and hallucinations can misattribute their own actions to an external source. The authors test the hypothesis that patients with schizophrenia have defects in their ability to predict the sensory consequences of their actions. METHOD The authors measured sensory attenuation of self-produced stimuli by patients with schizophrenia and ...

Visual context processing in schizophrenia.

Abnormal perceptual experiences are central to schizophrenia but the nature of these anomalies remains undetermined. We investigated contextual processing abnormalities across a comprehensive set of visual tasks. For perception of luminance, size, contrast, orientation and motion, we quantified the degree to which the surrounding visual context altered a center stimulus' appearance. Across task...
