Abstract

The present study investigated event-based prospective memory in individuals with schizophrenia (n = 23) and healthy controls (n = 23). The retrospective-memory load was varied to disentangle the relative contributions of the retrospective and prospective components on prospective-memory functioning. A generalized prospective-memory deficit in schizophrenia emerged, with significant impairment evident even when retrospective-memory demands were minimal. Exploratory analyses suggest that both the retrospective and the prospective components contribute to the prospective-memory deficit in schizophrenia.
