Abstract
⺠Schizophrenia may involve failure in internal monitoring of self-initiated motor outputs. ⺠The thalamus may be involved in monitoring of efferent cortical motor outputs. ⺠The thalamus has been found to be markedly affected in schizophrenia. ⺠The thalamus displays burst firing mode prior to exploratory behaviors. ⺠Pharmacological agents that promote burst firing in the thalamus may have antipsychotic effects.
