June 2003
University Hospital of Geneva, Department of Psychiatry, Adult Psychiatric Clinic, 2 chemin du Petit-Bel-Air, 1225 Chêne-Bourg (Geneva), Switzerland.
Objective: This paper reports on a study designed to (i) assess levels of executive functions among patients suffering from schizophrenia; (ii) investigate associations between measures of executive functions and psychosocial adjustment; and (iii) examine the influence of psychopathology on the relationship between executive functions and psychosocial adjustment. Clear knowledge of executive functions and of their impact on social adjustment in patients with schizophrenia may play a decisive role in preparing and structuring appropriate outpatient care.
Method: An extensive battery constituted of several tests developed for the assessment of executive functions was used in 38 inpatients with a DSM-IV diagnosis of schizophrenia.
