Defi cits in recognition of facial expressions of emotions are considered to be an important factor explaining impairments in social functioning and affective reactions of schizophrenic patients. Many studies confi rmed such defi cits while controversies remained concerning the emotion valence and modality.

Results of the group of 35 patients and 35 matched controls indicate that while schizophrenic patients show general impairment in recognizing facial expressions of both positive and the majority of negative emotions, there are differences in defi cits for particular emotions. Expressions also appeared to be more ambiguous for the patients while variables connected with gender were found less signifi cant.
