“…Correspondingly, high schizotypal students in the present study were perhaps inclined to decide that internally generated events (e.g., word associations triggered by presentations of non-words) were external events. This account seems to be supported by evidence that positive schizotypal symptoms predict an increased generation of word associations (Miller & Chapman, 1983;Tsakanikos & Claridge, 2005). Loosening of associations in schizophrenia (e.g., Kwapil Hegley, Chapman, & Chapman 1990), and positive schizotypy (Mohr, Graves, Gianotti, Pizzagalli, & Bragger, 2001), have also been documented.…”
