| Sumario: | The article discusses about the conditioned reflex in the chronic schizophrenic patients. The subjects used in the two studies to be reported were test and control patients in another, extended investigation of learning or problem solving in the chronic schizophrenic. The patients in this learning investigation were put through a three months program. The test patients were required to lean progressively more difficult problems with insulin stimulated hunger as a motive. If a part of chronic schizophrenia is a condition of the cortex approximating functional decortication, then a prolonged period of activity which forces the patient to use his cortex-such as the learning problems used with the test patients here should to some extent improve the functioning of the cortex. |
