Q

Allan et al. (2007)

A

People with schizophrenia who hear voices were more likely to say their own words were spoken by someone else compared to a healthy control group.

Brain activity was the same whether it was another speaker or themselves, and distorted or not. Control participants showed different brain activities.

A jar of green and pink beads. 2 conditions (green more, pink more).

People with schizophrenia requested fewer beads to be removed.

They were more likely to change their mind based on a single piece of evidence. (1 pink after 4 green = more pink)

Q

Zhao et al. (2016)

A

Meta analysis; over 10,000 people, 18 different antipsychotics, 56 random control trials

17 drugs had lower relapse rates than placebos. This reduces hospital admissions.
