Core Tip

Core Tip: Chronic schizophrenia is generally an unconscious disorder with obvious intellectual disabilities. Insidious onset, prolonged course, repeated aggravation or deterioration, and negative symptoms of mental illness are common manifestations of the disease. Cognitive function and social life ability are severely impaired. In this study, we investigated the effect of Computerized Cognitive Remediation Therapy on cognitive impairment and society using the Patient and Negative Syndrome Scale, Wisconsin Card Sorting Test, and Scale of Social Function in Psychosis Inpatients scores in 120 patients with chronic schizophrenia.
