Effort and liberal acceptance bias in patients with schizophrenia.

Conclusions: This exploratory study is in line with predictions based on the liberal acceptance model. For future studies, we recommend further cross-validating this paradigm and testing whether patients' retrospective assessment of their performance is exaggerated relative to controls. We also suggest that researchers pursue this line of research with personally meaningful material where a decreased threshold of acceptance may more easily translate into the subsequent fixation of ideas.
