[Clinical criteria for the social dangerousness of schizophrenics (syndromes with a predominance of delusional and hallucinatory disorders)].
Data obtained from epidemiological studies carried out in some large administrative regions have shown that among the causes of socially dangerous actions committed by schizophrenics the syndromes with prevalent delusional and hallucinatory-delusional disorders take the second (after psychopathy-like states), and, as regards acts of violence, the first place. Practically all the phenomena of a delusional or a hallucinatory-delusional syndrome may be the motives of the socially dangerous actions. However, the occurrence and character of those actions are different, these differences being associated with particular psychopathological features of the hallucinatory-delusional syndromes. The knowledge of those peculiarities may contribute to early recognition of such patients and to taking adequate curative and rehabilitation measures aimed at preventing the dangerous actions.
