title: [Changes in the psychic factor structure of schizophrenics after release from the hospital].
abstract: When studying the "postremission syndrome of exhaustion" in schizophrenics changes in mental factor structures after the patients' discharge from hospital were assessed by performance intelligence scales and check lists of emotional states. Test scores obtained at discharge and 8 weeks afterwards were factor analysed separately. Differences in factor structures of the two matrices represented mainly by independence between emotional and intellectual functions at discharge and negative associations between these factors 8 weeks later could not be completely compensated by similarity rotations of the two factor matrices thus indicating genuine changes in factor structures rather than effects due to methodological procedures.
