Abstract

Schizophrenia is a neuropsychiatric disorder that causes people to hallucinate and have unusual or distorted thoughts. Schizophrenia is primarily diagnosed based on symptoms such as hallucination, delusion, abnormal thought disorder, disorganized speech, bizarre behavior, and cognitive impairment. One of the major current discussions in schizophrenia is the poor cognitive function, which includes impairment of attention and working memory. Any abnormality in these sets of cognitive functions limits one's ability to organize daily life, including social life, career, and thought. So far, many studies have been conducted revealing the neural processing of schizophrenia patients. However, very few papers discuss the states of neurocognitive processing from the combinations of multiple modalities of neuroimaging, electrophysiological, and neuropsychological sides in one single article. This review article will discuss previous studies on cognitive function in schizophrenia patients from a neuroscience standpoint.
