The results of a psychophysiological (conditioning) analysis of chronic schizophrenia are presented, and a relationship between the level of psychophysiological performance and differential drug withdrawal effects is revealed. Regression from a higher to a lower level of organization, for example, from integrational to skeletomuscular or from skeletomuscular to autonomic functional systems, and dissociation within a functional system or between the different functional systems tested, were shown to be prevalent in schizophrenic patients.
