Abstract

The background, hereditary data, history of organic stress, intellectual development, types of treatment received, and outcome are described for 100 children diagnosed as schizophrenics at Bellevue Hospital from 1935 to 1952. The author discusses the effects of various factors on the course of schizophrenia. About one-third of these 100 subjects, now 25 to 50 years of age, made a satisfactory adjustment to life in the community.
