title: The application of computerized WCST and long-term evoked potentials for schizophrenia analysis.
abstract: The purpose of this study is to characterize the cognitive functions of schizophrenic patients using different auditory and visual event-related potentials (ERPs) based on Wisconsin card sorting test (WCST). From the experimental results, it is indicated that there is a slowness of automatic cognitive processing and controlled cognitive processing during WCST in comparison with ERPs for schizophrenic patients.
