TI  - Predictors of social cognition in patients with schizophrenia.
PG  - 571-6
AB  - The goal of this study is to explore neurocognitive, clinical and community 
      functioning variables in order to predict "social reasoning" in a sample of 
      patients with a diagnosis of schizophrenic disorder. Cognitive and community 
      functioning, and social reasoning have been evaluated, together with the Positive 
      and Negative Syndromes Scale (PANSS) and DSM-IV Global Assessment of Functioning 
      (GAF), in a sample of 46 patients who met the DSM-IV criteria for schizophrenia. 
      Our findings show that global functioning as reflected by GAF is the strongest 
      predictor of the social reasoning as evaluated by the Wason's Selection Task 
      (WST). Other community functioning variables such as the Life Skills Profile 
      (LSP) sub-scores do not provide significant prediction of social reasoning. 
      Similarly, neurocognitive measures, in terms of attention and contextual 
      reasoning, have no predictive effect on social reasoning. Our findings show that 
      social cognition should be considered as an additional cognitive domain more 
      related to functional outcome.
