dc.description.abstractBACKGROUND: Face recognition has important implications for patients with schizophrenia, who exhibit poor interpersonal and social skills. Previous reports have suggested that patients with schizophrenia have deficits in their ability to recognize faces, and because face recognition relies heavily on information about the configuration of faces, we hypothesized that patients with schizophrenia would have specific problems in processing configural information. METHODS: We measured the performance of 20 patients with schizophrenia and 20 normal subjects in a face-discrimination task, using upright and inverted pairs of face photographs that differed in featural or configural information. RESULTS: The patients with schizophrenia showed disproportionately poorer performance in discriminating configural compared with featural face sets. CONCLUSION: The result suggests that the face-recognition deficit in schizophrenic patients is due to specific impairments in configural processing of faces.en
