Declarative Memory of Schizophrenia

More about the book

The book explores the cognitive impairments associated with schizophrenia, particularly focusing on attention, information processing, executive functions, memory, and language skills. It examines how these impairments can serve as vulnerability markers for defining schizophrenia phenotypes, aiding early detection and treatment development. The study assesses declarative memory in patients with Paranoid and Undifferentiated Schizophrenia, revealing significant deficits in executive functioning and memory compared to healthy individuals, with the most severe impairments in Undifferentiated cases. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers and cognitive rehabilitation efforts aimed at improving the life skills of those affected.
