[Changes in the manifestation of guilt perception in endogenous depression in advanced age].
The manifestation of endogenous depressions has clearly changed in the last decades. Ideas of guilt and sin have decreased or changed their contents, whereas feelings of insufficiency, physical complaints and hypochondriac ideas have clearly increased. The importance of the experience of guilt in the case of endogenous depressions and transcultural aspects of the guilt phenomenon are pointed out. By means of 301 case-histories of depressive patients at the involutional period the change in the manifestation of the depression within four periods of time is pointed out and its possible causal relationships are discussed.
