Which of the following statements is true about the gender differences in disorganized thought and speech symptoms of schizophrenia?
A) Women with schizophrenia tend to show more severe deficits in language than do men with schizophrenia.
B) Brain abnormalities associated with schizophrenia may not affect women's language and thought as much as they do men's because women can use both sides of their brain to compensate for problems.
C) Compared to women, language deficits are less apparent in men with schizophrenia owing to the fact that language is controlled more bilaterally in men.
D) Language is more localized in men, so when the areas of the brain associated with language are affected by schizophrenia, men are better able to compensate for the deficits than women.
