Abstract
The replications of the finding of eye tracking dysfunction (ETD) in schizophrenia patients and their first-degree relatives suggest that ETD may be informative in studies of a schizophrenia genotype having broadly defined phenotypes. We review and critically assess the literature on ETD with respect to syndrome and familial specificity and discuss the quantitative assessment of eye tracking.
