[Coping and psychological compensation in patients with endogenous psychoses of schizophrenic origin].
For a long period of time, the coping and compensatory mechanisms that arise from the patients with schizophrenic psychoses themselves have been considered only to a small extent by the psychiatric research. On the basis of Huber's concept of basic symptoms, we extended the six categories of coping mechanisms which are described in the Bonn Scale for the Assessment of Basic Symptoms (BSABS) by three further categories. With ten schizophrenic patients - mostly in-patients - semistructured interviews concerning these categories were done. All patients were found to have coping and compensatory mechanisms, and as a contribution to recognize and describe these mechanisms, parts of the patients' remarks are quoted. This is a prerequisite for an operationalized recording on larger patient populations that will possibly also allow correlation-statistical conclusions.
