Abstract: | Results of a partial replication of a study by A. J. Yates and P. Korboot (see record 1971-06730-001), with 3 groups of 10 chronic nonparanoid schizophrenics, paranoid schizophrenics, and psychotic depressives as Ss, confirm the finding of the extreme slowness of functioning in chronic nonparanoid schizophrenics. The finding was extended by showing that this group was also significantly slower than chronic psychotic depressives when inspection time was measured uncontaminated by verbal response time.
