title: [Psychoses in the mentally retarded].
abstract: After a study of the clinical peculiarities of psychoses of imbecile children and juveniles (18 cases of episodic psychoses, 15 cases of grafted schizophrenia) the following results were obtained: In the group of episodic psychoses in imbeciles the psychopathological symptom complex had to be subdivided into four subgroups. In the first group there predominated affective phenomena, in the second group disturbances of motion, in the third group delirious, and in the fourth group hallucinatory phenomena. The differential-diagnostic criteria show the difference of the episodic psychoses of imbeciles from schizophrenias (grafted schizophrenias). An early recognition of this form of psychoses is quite important to both the prognosis and choice of therapy.
