The phenomena of eye movement impairments in schizophrenia are interpreted in this paper, Part I of a two-paper series, in the context of neural mechanisms of attention and eye movement control. The predominant pattern of attention and eye movement impairment in schizophrenia—a disruption of smooth pursuit by saccadic intrusions—is consistent with a disinhibition of saccades. This disinhibition may be related to a dysfunction of frontal eye field mechanisms involved in feedback regulation of saccades and smooth pursuit during visual tracking. A second, less specific type of smooth pursuit impairment consists of saccadic substitution, and may be interpreted in terms of a dysfunction of temporo-parietal mechanisms of task-engagement.
