The right-ear advantage in schizophrenia.
Schizophrenics, patients with affective disorder and normal controls were tested on a verbal dichotic listening task at three time periods, 0-2, 4-6 and 14-16 weeks. Schizophrenics had non-significant ear difference during the acute state of illness (0-2 weeks) and the normal right-ear advantage emerged when acuteness subsided (14-16 weeks).
