Abnormalities of psychomotor development in schizophrenia: a rehabilitation perspective.
This study was an evaluation of the psychomotor profiles of 22 schizophrenic patients, investigated by means of a test battery developed for the assessment of psychomotor profiles of 10- to 12-year-old children. Analysis indicates that abnormal psychomotor development is an inherent feature of the disease and probably is antecedent to a full psychopathological picture.
