This research report studies how schizophrenic subjects process contextual syntactic information using a double-decision lexical task (deciding whether or not strings of letters form French words). Given the automatic nature of syntax, we are assuming the preservation of syntactical information processing in all the schizophrenic subjects, including those presenting thought disorder (TFP), which we name schizophrenic TPF+.
Twenty control subjects and 20 schizophrenic subjects (including 10 TFP+ schizophrenic subjects) participated in a double-decision lexical task containing syntactic errors.
The results confirm our hypothesis because we show that all subjects (control and schizophrenic) are hampered in recognizing words when they contain grammatical errors.
The results contrast with data on the processing of contextual semantic information by schizophrenic subjects, since the data in the literature conclude that there is an information-processing anomaly on the part of these patients. As a result, our study refutes the hypothesis of a generalized difficulty in the processing context by schizophrenic subjects.
本研究报告使用双决策词汇任务（判断字母串是否构成法语单词）来研究精神分裂症患者如何处理上下文句法信息。鉴于句法的自动性，我们假设所有精神分裂症患者，包括那些存在思维障碍（TFP）的患者（我们将其称为精神分裂症TFP+患者）都保留了句法信息处理能力。
20名对照受试者和20名精神分裂症患者（包括10名精神分裂症TFP+患者）参与了一项包含句法错误的双决策词汇任务。
结果证实了我们的假设，因为我们发现当单词包含语法错误时，所有受试者（对照受试者和精神分裂症患者）在识别单词方面都会受到阻碍。
这些结果与精神分裂症患者处理上下文语义信息的数据形成对比，因为文献中的数据表明这些患者存在信息处理异常。因此，我们的研究反驳了精神分裂症患者在处理上下文方面普遍存在困难的假设。
