摘要:

The psychological test results of five XYY males found in a population study showed an intellectual level within the normal range but with a mean full scale IQ and educational level lower than expected. The cognitive as well as emotional function was characterized by immaturity, manifested in passivity, unreflectiveness and emotional lability, in three resulting in uncontrolled aggressive outbursts. Conflict material also appeared immaturely resolved, centering around unfulfilled needs of contact and insecure masculine identification. The defence mechanisms used were generally rather weak, but only in one subject did the anxiety level seem to be excessively low.All five males differed to a certain extent from their siblings; three of them were hyperactive, restless, hot‐tempered and impulsive at school and four of them had difficulties at school. Three learned a trade, but only one stayed in his trade, and one was applying for disablement pension on account of personality deviation. Two of the five had a criminal record.It is concluded that the presence and degree of the above‐mentioned characteristics of XYY males varied. It is evident that environmental factors play as great a role for the development of personality and behaviour in males with karyotype 47, XYY as in males with a normal chromosome constitut

摘要:

The psychiatric morbidity of Berlevaag in Northern Norway (71 degrees North) was studied in 1944 byBremerA follow‐up and a re‐examination of the persons in the community was initiated in 1972.Preliminary data suggest that the prevalence of psychoses is practically the same in 1973 as in 1944. Various registers have provided a fairly complete count of psychoses even before the onset of an intensive field study. Only a minor part of the nonpsychotic psychiatric disorders appears to have been identif

摘要:

On the basis of a material from a cumulative registration of the psychiatric morbidity in a geographically delimited population group ‐ the County of Aarhus with approximately 175,000 inhabitants over the age of 15 years ‐ the frequency of depressive syndromes in psychiatric and other medical services was investigated.The material fulfils the following criteria: During the calendar years 1960 to 1964, the patients 1) were residents in the County of Aarhus, 2) had attained the age of 15 years or more, 3) had contacted at least one of the services which systematically sent information to the psychiatric register; and 4) based on an evaluation of all available data, had a main diagnosis of manic‐depressive psychosis, psychogenic depression or neurotic depression.An average yearly registration rate of 1.30 per 1,000 men and 3.28 per 1,000 women was found (males: manic‐depressive psychosis 0.60, psychogenic depression 0.23 and neurotic depression 0.47; females: manic‐depressive psychosis 1.00, psychogenic depression 0.88 and neurotic depression 1.40). The three diagnostic groups show differences in age distribution, geographical pattern and distribution by marit

摘要:

Time studies are partly concerned withtime estimationpartly withtime experience.In a study of depression both principles were applied. Depression did not influence time estimation, but, on the other hand, the patients did report a slowing down of time (change in time experience).An item analysis of Beck's and Hamilton's rating scales showed that the disturbance in time experience accompanies items referring mainly to mood changes, only to a small extent to somatic symptoms, and not at all to changes in the psychomotor activity.

摘要:

Two groups of patients in disturbed states of consciousness (DSC's) were compared with three groups of patients in clear states of consciousness (CSC's): demented, schizophrenic, and non‐psychotic patients. In each of the groups, 15 patients were evaluated for 21 “objective” symptoms; each patient was evaluated by two psychiatrists. In this way, reliable symptoms were sought out which could discriminate: 1) elderly patients in DSC's from elderly demented but clear patients; and 2) schizophrenic patients from patients in DSC's caused by either withdrawal states after abuse of alcohol or barbiturates, or psychogenic psychoses.Reliable and discriminating symptoms were found. However, different symptoms discriminated when patients in different diagnostic groups were compared. Three kinds of discriminating values of a symptom may be distinguished from one another: 1) only the presence of a symptom is informative; 2) only its absence is informative; 3) both presence and absence of the symptom are inform
