Sustained attention ability in schizophrenia: investigation of conflict monitoring mechanisms

Amongst the main cognitive deficits in schizophrenia, impairments in sustained attention have been considered to be characteristic since the first descriptions and definition of the disorder (Kraepelin, 1919; Bleuler, 1950; Shakow, 1962; Nuechterlein et al., 1984). Nowadays, they are still considered as a hallmark of schizophrenia (Green, 1996; Green et al., 2000; Nuechterlein et al., 2004) and recognized as a probable causal explanation of multiple impairments observed in these patients (Green, 1996; Green et al., 2000; Green et al., 2004).
