A short chapter on war neuroses contains the experiences of Mira in the Spanish War which were somewhat startling to many people who expected a great increase of psychoneuroses among civilians exposed to war conditions.
Abstract
more rapid recovery may take place, but are not prepared to state that they cure patients who would otherwise be unrecoverable. Psychopathic states have been entirely removed from the mental defectives in the classification and dealt with largely on the lines of Professor Henderson's Salmon lectures. A short chapter on war neuroses contains the experiences of Mira in the Spanish War which were somewhat startling to many people who expected a great increase of psychoneuroses among civilians exposed to war conditions. Instead, it was found that the \" fed ups \

Emotions and emotion regulation in developmental psychopathology

TL;DR: An overview of the historical links between the emotions and psychopathology is presented in this article, with a focus on the role and development of the emotions in atypical populations and the contributions that the emotions have made for enhancing our understanding of psychopathology have been evident throughout history.
Journal ArticleDOI

The initial prodrome in schizophrenia: searching for naturalistic core dimensions of experience and behavior.

TL;DR: It is argued that the findings, the phenomena, and their significance in prodromes are valid because they are logical and coherent in light of clinical experience as well as the empirical literature of a full century.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pyramidical Model of Schizophrenia

TL;DR: A standardized and administered 30-item psychiatric symptom scale to 240 schizophrenic inpatients implies that negative and positive syndromes show factorial validity and distinction from depression but, alone, are insufficient to accommodate the full diversity of symptoms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mood disorder as a specific complication of stroke

TL;DR: It is concluded that mood disorder is a more specific complication of stroke than simply a response to the motor disability and that a controlled trial of antidepressant medication is indicated for patients with this complication.
Journal ArticleDOI

Post-stroke depression: relationships to functional impairment, coping strategies, and rehabilitation outcome.

TL;DR: It is indicated that depression is a frequent companion of stroke, that it is associated with degree of functional impairment, and that it may exert a negative impact on the rehabilitation process and outcome.

Affective disorders and cerebral vascular disease.

TL;DR: Post-stroke mania is strongly associated with both a right hemisphere lesion in a limbic-connected area and a second predisposing factor, such as genetic loading for affective disorder, pre-existing subcortical atrophy or seizure disorder, which may be mediated through frontal lobe dysfunction.

Classification of mental disorders.

TL;DR: A critical survey of existing classifications is undertaken and some of the difficulties created by lack of knowledge regarding pathology and etiology may be overcome by the use of "operational definitions" and the basic principles on which a generally acceptable international classification might be constructed are outlined.
