Description
Summary:	The authors report that the spectrum of clinical presentations, dynamics and outcome of mental disorders as well as the severity of psychogenias in patients with schizophrenia are closely associated with basic characteristics of the endogenous process including the developmental trend with the presence of mainly positive or mainly negative disorders. The authors explain the result by giving an example on the formation of reactive depression in positive and negative schizophrenia. Moreover, they present a specific variant of psychogenia developed on the basis of negative schizophrenia with early onset (verschroben type or simple deficit).
