Fragile temporal prediction in patients with schizophrenia is related to minimal self disorders

Abstract Patients with schizophrenia have difficulty in making sensory predictions, in the time domain, which have been proposed to be related to self-disorders. However experimental evidence is lacking. We examined both voluntary and automatic forms of temporal prediction in 28 patients and 24 matc...
