Cognitive dysfunction is the loss of intellectual abilities that can range from mild to severe disturbance and affect an individual's attention, thinking, memory, executive function, reasoning, visual-spatial function, language, and psychomotor speed. The purpose of this review paper is to carry out a current understanding of cognitive dysfunction in schizophrenia as well as their relationship with the other aspects of illness. The present review deals with empirical studies from January 2005 to March 2015 searching through Pub Med database and Google Scholar, and 96 articles were found appropriate on the basis of their titles and abstracts. Schizophrenia and Schizophrenia spectrum disorder were included as study sample. Cognitive dysfunction was found in all domains including of attention, executive function, comprehension, learning and memory. Cognitive dysfunction were found in every phase of illness and significantly correlated with positive, negative, and disorganized symptoms, patient demographics and functional outcome in schizophrenia. Cognitive dysfunction affects the overall life of a patient with schizophrenia. This paper may help to better identify and understand the cognitive dysfunctions in schizophrenia and ultimately guide in better management.Keywords

Cognitive deficits are the common featnre of schizophrenia and affect the whole fhnetioning of patient. The main aim of the present study is to examine the predictive effect of verbal fluency and processing speed on fhnctional disability in schizophrenia. 30 schizophrenia patients were selected as sample of the study. Processing speed was assessed by digit symbol substitution test, verbal fluency assessed by controlled oral word association test; functional disability assessed through WHO disability assessment schedule. Brief psychiatric rating scale was used to measure severity of illness. Hierarchical regression analysis used to find the relationship between functional disability and processing speed and verbal fluency. The result indicated that processing speed (-.683, p<0.01) and verbal fluency (-.559, p<0.01) age (.402, p<0.05) and education (-.502, p<0.01), duration of illness (.612, p<0.01) and severity of illness (.580, p<0.01) significantly predicted functional disability but gender showed no relationship with functional disability. Cognitive dysfunction atfects the functioning of patients with schizophrenia. This paper may help to understand the role of processing speed and verbal fluency in functioning of the patients and also help to develop intervention programs.Keywords
