| Popis: | The Miers and Raulin Cognitive Slippage Scale was used to assess subtle thought disorder, and the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) was used to assess cognitive performance in deviantly high scorers on the Perceptual Aberration and Magical Ideation Scales (N = 63), high scorers on the revised Social Anhedonia Scale (N = 62), and in control subjects (N = 83). Results indicate that schizotypic individuals are more likely to report greater cognitive slippage and less likely to achieve as many WCST categories as controls. Individuals with both positive and negative symptoms of schizotypy reported higher levels of cognitive slippage than those individuals reporting only negative schizotypy. Additionally, the results confirm the presence of an especially high-risk group of psychosis-prone individuals, namely, those individuals with deviant scores on the revised Social Anhedonia Scale who possess additional indicators of schizotypy. |
