Abstract
In conclusion, patients with schizophrenia used the same strategies as healthy controls to perform on a word fluency test, but they used them less effectively. Disproportionate impairment in semantic fluency in schizophrenia resulted from a differential deficit only in clustering. Therefore, disproportionately impaired category fluency in schizophrenia may be primarily due to disorganization and not to inefficient access to and retrieval from semantic store.
