Interactive patterns in the schizophrenic family during hospitalization.
Our research is based on the cases of 40 patients diagnosed as schizophrenics and the patterns of their family interaction at the moment of the hospitalization, in order to formulate an initial analysis of the reason of admission as the first phase in a therapeutic process. With this intent the authors have conducted a catamnestic research on the charts of patients who have been divided in three groups according to the presence or absence of the parents. The following variables have been therefore taken into consideration: the referrals, her/his behavior at the moment of hospitalization, expectations and difficulties in widening the field of observation within the family.
