Abstract

Memory impairment in schizophrenia has been reported in several studies during the last decades. Issues related to the interpretation of such deficits are discussed. Research strongly suggests specific memory dysfunction in schizophrenia that may be neither drug induced nor secondary consequences of attentional disorders. Our own longitudinal data indicate that these deficits deviate from normal function in a relatively stable way. Although medial temporal lobe structures seems to be of special importance, memory function may be vulnerable to a variety of neurobiological abnormalities.
