right posterior regions for the target stimuli (at 610 ms) compared to healthy controls, suggesting a deficit of alpha-mediated cognitive control processes, and these ERO abnormalities were also most pronounced for the three converters. This series of studies confirmed that CSD measures are both reliable (as they could be replicated across studies with similar measures and subjects) and robust (as they provide identifiable and sensitive electrophysiological indices across groups and conditions). Thus, it has been demonstrated by these studies that employing CSD methods during specific cognitive/sensory tasks to assess neurocognitive deficits in schizophrenia yielded results that could be easily interpreted as well as identified with brain function than the conventional ERP methods.
