Event-related potential (ERP) correlates of schizophrenia have recently been reviewed in a series of articles in the Schizophrenia Builetin [Buchsbaum, 1977; Roth, 1977; Shagass, 1977]. Differences between patients and controls have been found for ERP components of various latencies and topographic distribution although generally only single ERP paradigms have been applied at one time. This paper reports the results of a pilot study designed to investigate schizo phrenic patients in a multiple ERP paradigm design. We tested subjects on three paradigms, each of which emphasized different late ERPs. Components with latencies over 50 msec are generally more sensitive than earlier components to psychological variables, such as attention and expectancy, and for that reason might be more sensitive to psychological alterations commonly reported in schizophrenia. By eliciting different ERP components in the same subjects we hoped to get an idea of the relative sensitivity of these components to schizophrenic illness.
