This study was planned to search for the neurological soft signs incidence and specificity in schizophrenic patients, 55 chronic schizophrenic patients Who're hospitalized at least for 10 year in Bakırköy State Hospital, 55 acute schizophrenic patients and 50 manic patients Who're also hospitalized in the same hospital (all patients were diagnosed by DSM-111-R criterias) and 50 normal person also were included to this study. While SANS, SAPS, EPS and NES were applied to all patients groups, for normal patients only NES was applied. As a conclusion, it was found that, neurological soft signs were not specific. While these symptoms were related with only negative symptoms of schizophrenia, their incidence appear to be higher than other patients groups.
