The resolution of heterogeneity of schizophrenics and their relatives using cognitive tasks requires measures of individual differences—usually of differential ability, which is inferred from differential performance. Tasks that are suited for establishing a group's differential ability are often unsuited for measuring individual differences. The problem is that for any group for which Tasks A and B have different mean accuracy, the (A–B) difference scores of individual subjects have an artifactual curvilinear relation to (A+ B) overall accuracy, with the largest (A–B) scores occurring at about 50%(A+ B) overall accuracy for a dichotomously scored free-response task. Two possible solutions are (a) to convert Task B scores to residualized scores, using the regression of Task B scores on Task A scores as determined for normal subjects; or (b) to titrate overall (A+ B) accuracy of each subject to a constant level by manipulating a variable.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
