In this informative video, we'll explore how cognitive skills like reasoning, memory, and problem-solving are affected by the condition. We'll discuss common misconceptions, such as the myth that schizophrenia causes a decline in overall intelligence, and clarify what the research actually shows about cognitive abilities in individuals with this disorder. You'll learn about the specific challenges faced, like attention and information processing, and how these impact daily activities such as communication and planning.
