Why do schizophrenic patients hallucinate?
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 26 (1):101-103 (2003)
| Abstract | Phillips & Silverstein argue that schizophrenia is a result of a deficit of the contextual coordination of neuronal responses. The authors propose that NMDA-receptors control these modulatory effects. However, hallucinations, which are among the principle symptoms of schizophrenia, imply a flaw in the interactions between neurons that is more fundamental than just a general weakness of contextual modulation. | |||||||||
