Distractibility was assessed in 59 inpatients with a relapse of schizophrenia and 3 mo later during a period of relative remission. Distractibility was measured with a digit span task and symptoms with the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). Although positive and negative symptoms improved significantly, the schizophrenia subjects' performance on the digit span task remained stable over time. There was no relationship between attention and symptoms. The possibility of distractibility being a vulnerability indicator for schizophrenia is discussed.
对59名精神分裂症复发的住院患者进行了注意力分散评估,并在3个月后相对缓解期进行了再次评估。通过数字广度任务测量注意力分散情况,并用阳性和阴性症状量表(PANSS)评估症状。尽管阳性和阴性症状有显著改善,但精神分裂症患者在数字广度任务上的表现随时间保持稳定。注意力与症状之间没有关联。本文讨论了注意力分散作为精神分裂症易感性指标的可能性。
