Abstract

The author examined 64 adolescents with schizophrenia with a prevalence of phasic affective disorders in the clinical picture. In accordance with the degree of severity 4 groups of patients were distinguished. A comparison of these groups depicted some structural traits of the depressive and manic attacks and their dynamics which correlated with the progress of the process. The conclusion is being made that shift-like schizophrenia with a prevalence of affective disorders in adolescency is characterized by frequent bipolar phases, a tendency towards a continual course and a more rapid than in adults modification of the phenomenology of attacks with increasing personality changes.
