Neuroscience-Guided Remediation of Cognitive Deficits in Schizophrenia | ||||||||||

All participants will receive a baseline evaluation of clinical, neurocognitive, and quality of life measures.

training exercises or play control graphics-based computer games for 75
minutes per day, five days per week, for eight weeks. (This is fun!) After
these eight weeks, participants will undergo a second evaluation of clinical,
neurocognitive, and quality of life variables. Six months after completion
of the intervention, each participant will be asked to return to the laboratory
for a third evaluation of clinical, quality of life, and neurocognitive
measures. Participant Requirements Persons eligible: Persons not eligible: Contact Christine Holland, Clinical Research Coordinator
