Recent theoretical accounts have proposed excitation and inhibition (E/I) imbalance as a
possible mechanistic, network-level hypothesis underlying neural and behavioral …

The brain is a predictive machine. Converging data suggests a diametric predictive strategy
from autism spectrum disorders (ASD) to schizophrenic spectrum disorders (SSD). Whereas …

Psychotic experiences may be understood as altered information processing due to aberrant
neural computations. A prominent example of such neural computations is the computation …

Dysfunctional decision-making has been implicated in the positive and negative symptoms
of schizophrenia. Decision-making can be conceptualized within the framework of …

Background Delusions, a core symptom of schizophrenia, are thought to arise from an
alteration in predictive coding mechanisms that underlie perceptual inference. Here, we …

The processes of attention and working memory are conspicuously interlinked, suggesting
that they may involve overlapping neural mechanisms. Working memory (WM) is the ability …

There seems to be no common factor for visual perception, ie, performance in visual tasks
correlates only weakly with each other. Similar results were found with visual illusions. One …

This review from the International Consortium on Hallucinations Research intends to
question the pertinence of the excitatory-to-inhibitory (E/I) imbalance hypothesis as a model …

Abstract Background and Hypothesis The neurocomputational framework of predictive
processing (PP) provides a promising approach to explaining delusions, a key symptom of …

The perceived orientation of a line or grating is affected by the orientation structure of the
surrounding image: the tilt illusion. Here, I offer a selective review of the literature on the tilt …
