摘要: Communication deviance (CD), forms of communication that are not bizarrely thought disordered but hard to follow and make difficult the consensual sharing attention meaning, has been hypothesized as a nonspecific contributor rearing parents psychopathology offspring, including schizophrenia. This hypothesis, or an alternative genetic transmission, would gain plausibility if CD long-term stability. was evaluated, using tape-recorded reliably scored Rorschachs in 158 Finnish adoptees, retested after median interval 11 years. Adolescent stably correlated with follow-up CD. However, initial at mean age 32 were significantly correlated. Gender, risk for schizophrenia, DSM-III-R (American Psychiatric Association, 1987) psychiatric diagnoses had no effect on adult appears be stable, traitlike feature adolescent functioning.
