Factors in sensory processing of prosody in schizotypal personality disorder: An fMRI experiment
(Elsevier BV, 2010)
Introduction—Persons diagnosed with schizophrenia demonstrate deficits in prosody recognition. To examine prosody along the schizophrenia spectrum, antipsychotic-naïve schizotypal personality disorder (SPD) subjects and ...
Facial emotion recognition and facial affect display in schizotypal personality disorder
(Elsevier BV, 2011)
Background—Patients with schizophrenia have deficits in facial affect expression and detection that hinder social interactions. The goal of this study was to examine whether or not epidemiologically-related antipsychotic-naïve ...
Schizotypal personality disorder and MRI abnormalities of temporal lobe gray matter
(Elsevier BV, 1999)
Background: Structural MRI data indicate schizophrenics have reduced left-sided temporal lobe gray matter volumes, especially in the superior temporal gyrus (STG) and medial temporal lobe. Our data further suggest a ...
MRI Study of Caudate Nucleus Volume and Its Cognitive Correlates in Neuroleptic-Naive Patients With Schizotypal Personality Disorder
(American Psychiatric Publishing, 2002)
Objective: “Cognitive” circuits anatomically link the frontal lobe to subcortical structures; therefore, pathology in any of the core components of these circuits, such as in the caudate nucleus, may result in neurobehavioral ...
Middle and Inferior Temporal Gyrus Gray Matter Volume Abnormalities in Chronic Schizophrenia: An MRI Study
(American Psychiatric Publishing, 2004)
Objective: The middle temporal gyrus and inferior temporal gyrus subserve language and semantic memory processing, visual perception, and multimodal sensory integration. Functional deficits in these cognitive processes ...
Dichotic listening in schizotypal personality disorder: Evidence for gender and laterality effects
(Elsevier BV, 2009)
Verbal dichotic listening performance was examined in 42 right-handed men and women with DSM-IV-defined schizotypal personality disorder (SPD) and 68 right-handed controls. As expected, both male and female control groups ...
Reduction of Caudate Nucleus Volumes in Neuroleptic-Naïve Female Subjects with Schizotypal Personality Disorder
(Elsevier BV, 2006)
Background: The caudate nucleus might contribute to the psychopathological and cognitive deficits observed in schizotypal personality disorder (SPD), a schizophrenia spectrum disorder. Here we focused on female patients, ...
A MRI study of fusiform gyrus in schizotypal personality disorder
(Elsevier BV, 2003)
The fusiform gyrus is important for face and object recognition, is abnormal in schizophrenia, but has not been studied in schizotypal personality disorder (SPD). Thin-slice MR images showed no differences, either in right, ...
Semantic Dysfunction in Women With Schizotypal Personality Disorder
(American Psychiatric Publishing, 2002)
Objective: This study examined whether early or late processes in semantic networks were abnormal in women with a diagnosis of schizotypal personality disorder. The N400 component of the EEG event-related potentials was ...
Shape Differences in the Corpus Callosum in First-Episode Schizophrenia and First-Episode Psychotic Affective Disorder
(American Psychiatric Publishing, 2002)
Objective: The corpus callosum, the largest white matter tract in the brain, is a midline structure associated with the formation of the hippocampus, septum pellucidum, and cingulate cortex, which have been implicated in ...
