Abstract

We investigated two important decision-making skills in schizophrenia and their relation with inhibition. As expected patients showed a dramatic deficit in the ability to apply decision rules for choice, specifically related to their inhibitory deficit. They were also slightly less able to resist sunk costs, with no relation with inhibition.
