An increasingly important number of studies are reclaiming themes from the fields of the cognitive sciences and the neurosciences. It seems essential, in the face of this multiplication of the lines of research, often very different in their object and their methodology, to recall the general theoretical paradigm of the cognitive sciences, in order to shed light on the links between the different researches and this theoretical model. Moreover, the best validation of a theoretical model remaining in medicine is that of its practical application. It is today fundamental to explore the field of cognitive research for its possible impact on the domains of clinical presentation and management of patients with schizophrenia. This article proposes to address these different points.
