Visuospatial encoding deficits and compensatory strategies in schizophrenia revealed by eye movement analysis during a working memory task

Abstract: encoding deficits and compensatory strategies in schizophrenia revealed by eye movement analysis during a working memory task.Objective: To investigate scanpath abnormalities during the encoding of static stimuli in schizophrenia and their interaction with visuospatial working memory (VSWM) dysfunction. Methods: Outpatients with schizophrenia and control subjects were asked to encode a static pattern for subsequent recognition after a short delay. We measured the number of correct and incorrect choices. We als… Show more

“…Visuospatial impairment can negatively affect various daily activities from the most common, such as watching TV or reading a book, to the most complex, including social interactions (visual recognition of social signals), and recognition of territorial boundaries (interpersonal space; Cummings and Mega, 2003 ). SZ subjects exhibit impaired performance in a wide range of VIS functions, from the most basic level of visual perception to more complex visuospatial processing and navigation abilities (e.g., Stuve et al, 1997 ; Doniger et al, 2001 ; Butler et al, 2005 ; Hanlon et al, 2006 ; Piskulic et al, 2007 ; Weniger and Irle, 2008 ; Cocchi et al, 2009 ; Folley et al, 2010 ; Landgraf et al, 2010 ; Fajnerová et al, 2014 ). This decline in VIS performance is already present in the first episode of schizophrenia and performance further deteriorates over time, predicting poor outcome (Stirling et al, 2003 ).…”

“…Schizophrenia is a severe mental illness commonly associated with trait deficits in cognitive functions like working memory (Mathes et al, 2005;Cocchi et al, 2009aCocchi et al, , 2009bCocchi et al, , 2009cDeserno et al, 2012). Such deficits have been consistently associated with altered lateral prefrontal activity (Tan et al, 2005).…”

“…Disturbed eye movements are commonly observed in many psychiatric illnesses, such as schizophrenia (see Cocchi et al, 2009). Gaze direction is an important social signal and altered control might be linked to impairments in social or cognitive processes as well.…”
