Annotation	There is evidence that schizophrenic associations display "chaotic", random-like behavior and decreased predictability. The evidence suggests a hypothesis that the "chaotic" mental disorganization could be explained within the concept of nonlinear dynamics and complexity in the brain that may cause chaotic neural organization. Testing of the hypothesis in the present study was performed using nonlinear analysis of bilateral electrodermal activity (EDA) during resting state and an association test in 56 schizophrenic patients and 44 healthy participants. EDA is a suitable measure of brain and autonomic activity reflecting neurobiological changes in schizophrenia that may indicate changes in nonlinear neural dynamics related to associative process.
