Abstract
Psychiatric patients in a prospective study on tardive dyskinesia (TD) development were psychometrically evaluated before TD onset to see whether cognitive impairment predisposes an individual to greater risk for TD. It was found that patients with TD showed more preexisting cognitive impairment than did the non-TD controls.
