| Research Abstract |
To elucidate the subclinical behavioral and psychological characteristics of schizophrenic children, childhood behaviors of schizophrenic subjects and normal healthy subjects in twenties were investigated in a questionnaire-based retrospective study using CBCL. Among the eight CBCL syndrome subscales, those of Withdrawn, Anxious/Depressed were significantly associated with schizophrenia, although any of these scores were not in clinical range. Patients also showed a significantly attenuated aggression. The hit-rate when classifying the schizophrenic and normal subjects by discriminant analysis using the eight CBCL syndrome subscales totaled 82% with cross validation. The results suggested that subclinical behavioral and psychological characteristics of schizophrenia already exist in the patients' childhood. With some assessment tool using obtained discriminant formulas, the quite early screening for the risk of schizophrenia could be possible.
