Auditory attention in process and reactive schizophrenia.
The present data indicate that, based on level of premorbid adjustment (process-reactive), schizophrenic subjects differ in auditory attention processes. Generally speaking, poor premorbid adjustment is associated with more attention dysfunction. Results also indicate that attentional deficits improve for all schizophrenic subjects after a 28-day period of neuroleptic therapy.
