Abstract

We studied First Episode Schizophrenia patients (FES) at the time of admission to psychiatric hospital and in 1 year follow-up. They were assessed using Positive and Negative Symptoms Scale (PANSS) and underwent an original Self-Agency (SELF) and a control motor (CONTROL) task, We found a specific link between PANSS Self-cluster and the performance in SA task, but not in the motor control task, suggesting an internal link between phenomenological and motor-action level of agency.
