A member asked:
Do schizophrenics tend to have high or low i.q.'s?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Either: Schizophrenia isn't related to IQ. This disorder has a lot of variability some patients spend their entire life in institutions while others live a relatively normal life with occasional exacerbations of schizophrenia. Their IQ can be high, low or average.
