> In the above link, this study shows that Amisulpride was as equally effective as riperidone in controlling positive & negative symptoms. Amisulpride was more effective than risperidone at controlling the "affective" symptoms of schizophrenia. I now understand what the the positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia are but not the affective symptoms. Could somebody help me out here? thanksI believe affective sympoms correlate very strongly with negative symptoms...affective refers to emotional...eg when depressed affectively I seem down, upset...I appear such a way to the clinician.
