Abstract:
This thesis posits as its central argument that placing semiotic theory in dialectic with the discourses of and about ‘schizophrenia’ will produce novel insights into both. Simultaneously, this thesis develops a semiological sign system for ‘schizophrenia’, mapping and critiquing its central narratives, organising ethics, aesthetics and thematics, whilst also offering a practical model as exemplar for a semiotic method of cultural, textual, medical, psychological and social critical analysis. In so doing, this thesis presents and develops the concept of ‘schizomimesis’, a term to describe the

Limiting its clinical heterogeneity by means of subtyping may help to shed light on some of the genetic underpinnings of the disease.

This work addresses some of the difficulties encountered while working in psychotherapy with a residual schizophrenic. While there is an abundance of literature on psychotherapy for schizophrenia, both supporting and also refuting its merit, what the literature fails to reveal is that there appears to be a class of schizophrenic who, while apsychotic and able to communicate in the everyday sense of the word, is in a psychic space which speaks of a break with the basic relational elements of the human order.

The clients chosen for this study were the most difficult clients in this population due to continued high service usage (i.e., time spent in locked facilities). All 14 clients had been in a locked facility at least 1 year immediately prior to treatment. The program included skills training, reinforcement for incompatible behavior, and a token economy. The clients' symptomology was recorded twice a day. My hypotheses were that symptoms would decrease due to the prog

There are about five types of schizophrenia: paranoid, catatonic, disorganised, undifferentiated, and residual. The focus of this thesis is on the diagnosis of Paranoid Schizophrenia.

In regards to schizophrenia specifically, clinicians and researchers have asserted the importance of the family in the development and course of the disorder.

Abstract:
The diagnosis of Schizophrenia in children has historically been the source of much psychiatric controversy, especially with regard to classification, treatment and prognosis. This was further complicated by the broad category for the diagnosis of psychotic disorders in childhood in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM 11).This included Schizophrenia in childhood, autism, and other psychotic conditions. The work of Kolvin (1971 a-f) and Rutter (1972), have been instrumental in separating autism and Schizophrenia into distinct categories. This review is not aimed at be

Semantic clustering has been used as a measure of learning strategies in a number of clinical populations and has been found to be deficient in individuals with Schizophrenia, but less attention has been paid to the dynamic use of this strategy over the course of fixed-order learning trials.

Four major conclusions were drawn: 1.
