[Conforming delusions].
A number of schizophrenic patients with the delusion homogeneous in its contents (conformant delusion) were examined. The results of the examination have shown that the delusion of this type can develop not only simultaneously, by the inter-induction mechanism, but also by way of transfer, suggestion of the delusional idea, i.e. by the type of suggestive psychoses. The leading role in the mechanism of the conformant delusion formation belongs to endogenous factors, and namely, to the regularities of the basic disease development that determine the peculiarities of the time course and outcome of the conformant delusion. A slowly progressing course of the disease without gross negative changes, a tendency to formation of "worshipped" delusional ideas, and formation of acquired reactive lability are the peculiarities of a schizophrenic process which are the "grounds" for conformant delusion formation.
