The main objective is to demonstrate that APA can improve cerebral plasticity in patients with schizophrenic or schizoaffective disorders (SCZ), reflected by an increase in the overall volume of hippocampus. The secondary objectives will also be to assess the impact of APA on the SCZ compared to the HV: 1. on other cerebral variables (changes in the different subregions of the hippocampus (Cornu Ammonis (CA: CA1,CA2-3-4), subiculum and dentate gyrus), cortical thickness, N-acetyl aspartate (NAA) and glutamate as well as changes in the white matter through the diffusion markers (fractional anisotropy, radial diffusivity and mean diffusivity in the frontomedial-hippocampal fibers) and cerebral irrigation 2. on physiological variables (neuromuscular, cardiovascular (heart rate variability) and aerobic) 3. on cognitive variables by measuring working memory, episodic memory, attentional and executive functions 4. on circadian rhythms (temperature, actimetry and wake-sleep cycle) 5. on the clinical status of patients (severity of symptoms, quality of life, level of activity and physical abilities). 6. on biological variables (fasting glucose, triglycerides, total cholesterol, High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLc), Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLc)
