“…More than half of the probands committed violent crimes before their first admission, suggesting that factors affecting violent behavior are present prior to the onset of psychosis. Thus, these data add to a large body of knowledge on pre-morbid behavior abnormalities in patients with schizophrenia (Watt et al 1970;Done et al 1994;Jones, 1997;Bearden et al 2000;Reichenberg et al 2002).…”

“…People who were admitted to hospital with schizophrenia had lower intelligence quotients (IQ) than their siblings and classmates1,2 and were also reported by their teachers as exhibiting deviant behaviour 3,4. These abnormalities (apparently confined to the boys) have been attributed to neurodevelopmental impairment, susceptibility to psychosocial stressors, or an interaction of these two possible factors 5…”

probably been the acceptability of myalgic encephalomyelitis as a diagnosis. Fatigue scores in our study were strongly correlated with depression scores, and a recent prospective study in general practice has confirmed this relation. 18 Depression as a cause of fibromyalgia is a much debated issue. Persistent pain is a depressing experience. Our finding that the depression score rises with tender point count irrespective of pain status, however, suggests that depression and fatigue may play a part in the genesis of tender points. This fits with the theory ofthe central modulation ofpain experience. Design-Subjects in a prospectively followed up cohort (the national child development study) who had been admitted as adults to psychiatric hospitals were compared with the rest ofthe cohort on ratings of social behaviour made by teachers at the ages of 7 and 11 years.

“…It has been found that socially incompetent children are more likely to drop out of school (Ullmann, 1957), become juvenile delinquents (Roff, Sells, and Golden, 1972), underachieve academically, and exhibit high levels of physical and verbal aggression (McCandless, 1967). Similarly, several retrospective studies of adult psychiatric patients (e.g., Pritchard and Graham, 1966;Watt, Stolurow, Lubinsky, and McClelland, 1967) have indicated that those patients diagnosed as schizophrenic, sociopathic, and/or mentally deficient frequently have psychiatric records dating from early childhood.…”

Recent interest in children's social competence has been prompted by findings of correlational and retrospective studies that indicate a positive relationship between early social adjustment problems of children and their adjustment later in life. To date, the assessment methodology in the area has pursued two directions: (1) sociometric measures (peer nomination and peer rating scales), which have provided the major means of identifying the socially competent child, and (2) direct observation, principally employed in the specification of socially competent behaviors. The current uses and the inherent assets and limitations of both strategies are discussed along with suggestions for enhancing current data collection methods. Issues concerning the definition of social competence, generalizability of current findings, and social norms are also examined.
