The results revealed that ECT did not increase either simple reaction time or serial learning scores. These findings are interpreted to indicate: (a) that ECT does not reduce the psychomotor retardation found in psychiatric patients, and (b) that ECT alone does not facilitate learningapplication/pdfenAll items in Research Commons are provided for private study and research purposes and are protected by copyright with all rights reserved unless otherwise indicated.Thesis2016-05-17
