["Behavior-analytical" treatment in severely defective schizophrenic patients].
The troublesome symptoms of the seriously defective schizophrenics depend sometimes upon their unexpected sensitive experiences, which are not reported verbally and are guessed merely through the precise observations of the behaviour. By the treatment of the disturbances so found, the troublesome symptoms disappear. As an example of this "behaviour-analytical treatment" an old, defective schizophrenic with incontinence and negativism was introduced in this report, whose background suggested an intensive mysophobia, and was treated successfully. Some forsaken inmates of the asylums might be helped in this way.
