Il ruolo del cervelletto nella schizofrenia: dai dati morfologici e funzionali alle implicazioni nella Psicopatologia
The role of the cerebellum in schizophrenia: from structural and functional data to implications in psychopathology

Cerebellar function has traditionally been understood as being confined to the control of voluntary movement. Recent research revises this narrow view and suggests that the cerebellum is critically involved in a number of nonmotor behaviors and cognitive operations. This paper reviews structural and functional neuroimaging studies of cerebellum in schizophrenia and neuropsychological observations on patients with major psychiatric disorders.
