Language and Cognition in Schizophrenia (Ple: Psycholinguistics)

Herausgeber: Schwartz, Steven

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Originally published in 1978 the contributors to this volume, including the leading figures in experimental psychopathology, were largely concerned with deducing the behaviour of schizophrenics from general psychological theories of language, learning and cognition. Their emphasis on deduction reflected a modern reliance on laboratory experimentation, and, taken as a whole, the chapters cover the breadth and variety of current approaches of the time to the study of schizophrenic language and cognition.
