This study uses a special brain scan (functional MRI) to look at how schizophrenia affects thinking and memory. It may help researchers understand why some people with schizophrenia have trouble with concentration, planning, or remembering things.
This trial looks at how people with schizophrenia and healthy volunteers synchronize during conversations. It aims to understand social difficulties in schizophrenia.
This study tests whether a type of brain stimulation called intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) can help improve social thinking and understanding in people with psychosis. Researchers want to see if this treatment can boost how you read social cues and connect with others.
This study looks at brain signals and behavioral measures to understand empathy-related processes in people with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. It may help researchers better understand what’s happening in the brain and how it relates to feelings and social understanding.
This study looks at how psychiatric and neurological conditions affect thinking and memory skills. By comparing patients with healthy volunteers, researchers hope to better understand these cognitive problems and find new ways to help.
This study uses brain scans and real-life surveys to understand how people with or without schizophrenia make decisions. It may help researchers learn how the brain works differently in schizophrenia.
