Summary
This study seeks to examine the effects of D-cycloserine augmentation on cognitive remediation for patients diagnosed with schizophrenia. We will test the hypotheses that D-cycloserine will significantly improve cognitive performance, negative symptoms, and measures of functioning compared to placebo when combined with eight weeks of cognitive remediation. We expect that these effects will persist when assessed at six-month follow up.
