March 21, 2018 updated by: Eric BRUNET, Versailles Hospital

Normal and Abnormal Event Related Potentials During Attribution of Intentions to Others and Resolution of Emotional Conflicts in Schizophrenia

Case-control comparison of clinical population, interventional and single-center research.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The main objective of this study is to define and characterize electrophysiological markers of the existing social cognition disorders in schizophrenia. Two groups of subjects are recorded : schizophrenic patients and healthy controls. Visual reinforcement effect during theory of mind judgment is tested.
