Impaired attention-dependent augmentation of MMN in nonparanoid vs paranoid schizophrenic patients: a comparison with obsessive-compulsive disorder and healthy subjects

Abstract

Mismatch negativity (MMN), in the deviant-minus-standard event-related potential (ERP) difference-waveform, may represent a working memory trace of the tone difference. Most but not all studies find MMN reduced in schizophrenic patients. This report investigates if differences may be attributable to experimental condition (diffuse vs focused attention), component identification (N1-like vs N2-like), topographic distribution, and clinical condition (with/without paranoid-hallucinatory symptoms, PH/NP). Comparisons were made for 12 PH, 12 NP schizophrenic patients with 13 obsessive compulsive and 25 normal control subjects. Frontal MMN reduction in schizophrenics largely resulted from an absence of an increase in focused attention conditions as in comparison groups. But there was a marked temporal activity locus in NP patients. These features were not reflected in other components except for a visible but nonsignificant N1-like temporal locus in NP patients. Further, schizophrenic patients did not show an increase in late positivity with focused attention like the comparison groups. The results show that so-called automatic processing deficits (amount and locus of MMN) are best seen in situations requiring the activation of contr...Continue Reading
