Can a simple memory trick help people with schizophrenia?

NCT ID NCT02150174

Summary

This study tested whether a learning method called 'retrieval practice' works for people with schizophrenia. Researchers compared 40 people (some with schizophrenia, some without) to see if practicing recalling word pairs from memory helps long-term learning more than just re-studying them. The goal was to gather knowledge to see if this technique could be useful in future therapy programs.
