“…greater resistance to illusion) in SCH compared to controls within a week of admission and within 3rd week. However, 1 week before discharge no apparent differences compared to controls.Illusory line motion | Crawford et al, 2010
| 19 Chronic SCH (4 F, 15 M, 24–48 years) 26 HC (9 F, 17 M, 21–56 years) | N/A | N/A | Forced choice | Magnitude of the illusion weaker in patients with schizophrenia compared to controls |
| Sanders, de Millas, Heinz, Kathmann, & Sterzer, 2013
| 34 Paranoid SCH (13 F, 21 M, M = 35 years) 34 HC (13 F, 21 M, M = 34.6 years) | 18.1, 21.5, 75.3 | N/A | Forced choice | Magnitude of the illusion weaker in patients with paranoid schizophrenia compared to controls Apparent motion of stimuli was negatively correlated with Peter’s Delusional Ideation (PDI) conviction subscale |
Roelof effect | Chen, McBain, Norton, & Ongur, 2011
| 33 SCH (15 F, 18 M, M = 20.5 years, 17 SCH, 16 SCH-A) 34 HC (17 F, 17 M, M = 15.1 years) | 15.4, 14.4, (total not reported) | N/A | Forced response | Greater illusionary effects seen in responses of patients with schizophrenia compared to healthy controls |
Kanizsa square | Spencer & Ghorashi, 2014
| 17 SCH (1 F, 16 M, M = 43.8) 14 HC (2 F, 12 M, M = 43.6) | N/A | N/A | Forced choice | No difference in errors of whether an illusory square was present or not. |
| Keane et al, 2014
| 75 Patients (46 SCH, 29 SCH-A, 62 % M, M = 46.0 years) 18 HC (50 % M, M = 41.1 years) | 20.1, 18.2, 77.9 | N/A | Forced choice | Patients were less able to distinguish between illusory and non-illusory conditions however, distractor contours reduced illusion perception similarly to as seen in HC suggesting shape perception not illusory contour difficulties. |
Hermann grid | Kantrowitz et al, 2009
| 38 Chronic SCH/SCH-A ( M = 37.3 years) 28 HC ( M = 36.5 years) | N/A | 40.9 | Forced choice | At 100 and 50 % levels of contrast, patients were significantly less susceptible to the illusion than controls, but not at 10 or 30 %. |
Contrast–contrast illusion | Barch et al, 2012
| 153 SCH/SCH-A (62 % M; M = 39.6 years) 137 HC (55 % M; M = 36.7 years) | N/A | Positive symptoms = 8.7, Negative symptoms = 7.4, Disorganised symptoms = 5.2 | Forced choice | Reduction in the contrast-contrast effect in SCH compared to healthy controls. |
| Dakin, Carlin, & Hemsley, 2005
| 15 Chronic SCH 20 HC | N/A | N/A | Forced choice | Patients were less vulnerable to contrast-contrast effect than healthy controls. |
