PINV was recorded during a warned reaction time paradigm in 16 chronic
schizophrenics in remission. Clinical symptoms were assessed by BPRS,
SANS, and the anhedonia scale of the Chapman Questionnaire. Ten healt
hy controls were studied in the same manner. Over the frontocentral ar
ea we found a significantly elevated PINV amplitude with an altered to
pographical distribution in the patient group. The difference values '
'PINVCz-PINVFz'' were correlated negatively with primary negative symp
toms of schizophrenia.
