Lateral asymmetry of electroencephalographic (EEG) spectra was assessed in schizophrenic patients compared to normal controls. Ten predominantly unmedicated schizophrenic inpatients and nine normal controls performed monitored cognitive tasks during bilateral recording of EEG from parietal and temporal sites. Lateralization of EEG power in five frequency bands was compared between the groups; separate analyses were performed for linked ears and vertex references. A subsample of schizophrenic patients was restudied after a period of neuroleptic treatment. All significant group differences were obtained with the linked ears reference only. Pretreatment schizophrenics manifested relatively less alpha power over the right hemisphere during all conditions than controls, particularly in the parietal leads. After treatment, there was a significant shift in alpha lateralization toward the control values. These latter effects were also present in the theta frequency band to a lesser extent.
