    Abstract

    The 40-Hz auditory steady-state responses (ASSRs) of 14 medicated schizophrenic patients were recorded in eyes-open and eyes-closed conditions as previously done in healthy volunteers. Patients show significantly increased precision of the evoked response with eyes closed, and a significant increase of broad-band noise activity when eyes are open.
