Abstract

Sense of agency (SoAg) - the experience of controlling one's own actions and their consequences - has been studied in schizophrenia but not in the earlier stages of the disease, i.e. in patients with a putative psychotic prodrome (PP). Previous research has shown that time judgments of voluntary actions can provide an implicit measure of the SoAg.
