Thinking effort in schizophrenia spectrum evaluations
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study investigates how much mental effort people with psychotic disorders (like schizophrenia) use during thinking tests, compared to people without mental health conditions. It may help researchers better understand cognitive challenges in these disorders.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 18 and 60 years old
- Have a schizophrenia spectrum or other psychotic disorder (for the patient group) or no psychiatric disorder (for the comparison group)
- Be able to speak and understand French
- Not have a neurological condition, past head injury, heart disease, or high blood pressure treatment
- Not have a current substance abuse or dependence problem

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 tests how people with schizophrenia and healthy volunteers track sources of information using a French computer task. It may help researchers better understand memory and thinking differences that could guide future support and treatments.
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 study combines brain stimulation with physical exercise to see if it can improve thinking and memory in people with schizophrenia. You will get both treatments and be tested on cognitive functions.
This trial looks at how a natural chemical pathway in the body might relate to thinking problems in people with schizophrenia. It compares healthy volunteers to people with schizophrenia to find biological clues.
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.
