Abstract

The developmental processes leading to neuropsychological deficits in schizophrenia are poorly understood. Both early developmental defects and subsequent deterioration may occur. Intelligence test profiles are often used to estimate premorbid ability and deterioration from prior levels of functioning. These characteristics were assessed in samples of first-episode (n = 51) and chronic (n = 50) schizophrenic patients. Although the groups showed few differences on tests to estimate premorbid intellectual ability, the chronic group performed worse on measures considered sensitive to deterioration. Dextral (right-handed) patients tended to have better performance; this effect was marked in the first-episode sample, especially on verbal tests. Male patients showed more evidence of deterioration than female patients. Subgroups differing in the time course of premorbid social dysfunction also differed in intelligence test profiles, suggesting that estimates of social and cognitive deterioration may have concurrent validity. The results support the hypothesis that patients differ in the course of cognitive decline and suggest that deterioration of function may follow the onset of overt psychosis in some patients. Prospective longitudinal studies of first-episode schizophrenic patients could directly test this hypothesis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
