Summary

This is a research study designed to examine how the psychiatric illness called schizophrenia affects brain function and thinking abilities such as attention and memory during simple computer-based tasks, and how measures of brain function are related to performance. The investigators do this by looking at brain activity using electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The investigators compare participants' results to the activity in their brain as well as clinical measures and questionnaires also completed during this study.
