This research aimed to investigate the stability of attentional network in the schizophrenic patient through comparison with Fan et al.(2002) and Wang at al.(2005) studies, in which they used same paradigm. Subjects were 34 schizophrenic patients. They were retested with the same measurements after 10 weeks without any intervention. Besides ANT, they were tested PANSS and Digit Span test in Wechsler Adult Intelligence scale-III. In the result, there was the interesting change between test and retest in the alerting network and the orienting network. Also, there was significant difference in the executive network, but remained still damaged level. In conclusion, the alerting network and the orienting network being proxy to automatic processing reached the normal level with only one exposure. This fact suggested that they were very unstable and not fundamental deficit in the schizophrenic patients. Also, these results provided that the precise analysis of the attention should be preceded in the cognitive therapeutic approach for the schizophrenic patients.
