Eye blink and schizophrenia: psychosis or tardive dyskinesia?

The author found abnormalities of ocular movement including abnormal blink rate and blink reflex to glabellar tap in 34 of 44 medication- free schizophrenic patients. It is not clear whether these signs represent part of the pathology of schizophrenia or result from withdrawal of neuroleptic treatment.
