This project explores sensory gating capabilities in individuals with schizophrenia compared to healthy controls. Utilizing double stimulus paradigms, the study examines the ability to suppress irrelevant auditory stimuli, indicated by P300 responses. Collaborating with experts from psychiatry and cognitive science, we aim to identify potential deficits in gating mechanisms among schizophrenia patients. Supported by NIH/NIMH and NSF, our findings highlight critical variations in neurophysiological responses, contributing to the understanding of auditory processing in mental health disorders.
