Patient Groups

SummaryWe investigated the overall prevalence and the differential comorbidity of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM)-III-R personality disorders in 166 remitted or recovered patients with schizophrenic (n = 102) or unipolar mood disorder (n = 64). Over 60% of both patient groups met the DSM-III-R criteria of at least one DSM-III-R personality disorder as assessed by means of the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-III-R (SCID-II-R), receiving on average 3.1 personality diagnoses. Neither DSM-III-R categories of personality disorders, nor scores on its three clusters A, B and C, nor total score on SCID-II-R differed significantly across the two groups. In conclusion, DSM-III-R personality disorders, although highly prevalent in schizophrenic and unipolar mood disorders, lack any specificity with respect to these categories of mental disorders.

AbstractThis study explored views of Catholic priests about schizophrenia and depression in Italy. Participants completed a questionnaire on their views about either schizophrenia (N = 282) or depression (N = 277). The depression group was surer than the schizophrenia group that: the disorder was due to psychosocial causes; curable; non-requiring long-term pharmacotherapy; the persons with depression could participate in religious activities. The older priests were more convinced than the younger priests that: the prayer and long-term pharmacotherapy are useful; the persons with mental disorders had affective difficulties, are recognizable and kept at distance. Priests should receive education on stigma in mental disorders, particularly schizophrenia.

Log volume estimation is a measurement of the amount of merchantable volume and precise estimation of log volume plays an important role in sustainable forest management. There are several log volume formula which commonly used in estimating the log volume, however, there are significant differences between each formula. Therefore, this paper evaluates the performance of three different log volume formula which are Smalian’s, Huber’s and Bruce’s formula against several log sectional length. The performance of each log volume formula will be evaluated in terms of the bias, precision and accuracy of the estimation. The result shows that Huber’s formula performs the best for log sectional length of 2 m, 4 m, 6 m and 8 m log sectional length. The log sectional length and prediction accuracy is inversely related whereby the shorter the log sectional length, the better the prediction accuracy is.

Although the electrical treatment of mental disorders is still in the empirical stage, its use is well established. Certain features and principles of treatment have been elucidated in the published reports, and all are agreed that it is specific for melancholic states.The evaluation of the scope and usefulness of E.C.T. would be enhanced by the comparative study of case material from various clinics, but much in the published reports is not strictly comparable because of the unavoidable variation in the assessment of diagnosis and the degree of recovery. In our case material collected over a period of five years we have endeavoured to present the facts with a minimum of subjectivity by limiting our observation as far as possible to measurable data. In order to reduce the variable factor of diagnosis, some 700 psychotics treated with electrically induced convulsions have been reconsidered and 500 selected for analysis after carefully excluding the overlapping types, particularly those cases presenting features of both affective and schizophrenic psychoses. The selected cases can therefore be regarded as classical examples clearly separated into the two large groups of biogenetic psychoses—schizophrenic and manic-depressive, including involutional melancholia.
