Are people with schizophrenia infact more logical than “normal” people? That is what one research study seems to indicate. Not a lot can realistically be drawn from the study, because the study did not have a lot of participants, but the results are interesting. In the study it showed that schizophrenic people out performed healthy people in areas of logic, and so the schizophrenic people tended to not perform as well with “common sense” logic. It would be interesting to see what might come of more studies in this area. For a more thorough synopsis of this study, please see the following link: Schizophrenics More Logical?

That is a very interesting possibility. I have often wondered how schizophrenics/schizoaffectives would score under such circumstances.
Thanks for the link.
