Social Cognition and Schizophrenia

This volume presents a theoretically important and clinically relevant framework for better understanding this thought disorder. While schizophrenia has long been understood to be both a cognitive disorder and a social one, integrating social and cognitive research approaches has not been a simple task. This volume brings together the cutting-edge work of distinguished psychologists who have developed and tested social cognitive models of schizophrenia. Here, they demonstrate how this paradigm holds promise for bridging the gap between lab-based tasks and real-world behavior, and for shedding light on the development, course, and outcome of schizophrenia.Corrigan, Patrick W. is the author of 'Social Cognition and Schizophrenia' with ISBN 9781557987747 and ISBN 1557987742.
