Summary
This study looks at whether learning to play a pretend musical instrument can help repair brain wiring in people with schizophrenia. The researchers will use brain scans to see if training changes the brain's white matter, which helps different areas communicate quickly. Poor white matter is linked to slow thinking in schizophrenia. The study involves 36 people aged 15-45 with schizophrenia or related disorders.
