Individuals with psychiatric disorders perceive the world differently. A recent study published in BMC psychiatry by Hui Shen et al., has shown that a color painting-based paradigm can effectively predict clinical symptom severity for chronic schizophrenia patients. These paintings by schizophrenia patients show potential as a tool for clinical diagnosis and prognosis.
