Abstract
•
There is some evidence that people with schizophrenia do not incorporate momentary feedback.
•
We use novel time-series based approaches such as seasonal decomposition and ARIMA to further the understanding.
•
Evidence from lab based cognitive tasks indicates that people with schizophrenia do not respond randomly or preservatively.
•
Findings support a bias toward self-generated information in participants with schizophrenia when task criteria were not specified.
•
Findings can aid in developing problem solving strategies that incorporate external feedback with self-generated information.
