abstract = "Social exclusion and social dysfunction are persistent and debilitating aspects of schizophrenia. The interactional impact of patients’ social deficits during actual dialogue is poorly understood. Through analysis of a corpus of patients’ triadic interactions we explored laughter as a marker of discomfort or coalition in patients’ interactions. Patient interactions did not differ from controls in terms of laughter production. However, patients who were more symptomatic laughed less frequently,
while their partners showed a trend for displaying more shared laughter, potentially
indicating coalition formation.",
