Abstract
A 1-year sample of consecutively admitted patients between 18 and 40 years of age is studied. Psychopathology has been elicited by the Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia (SADS), and diagnoses have been set according to Research Diagnostic Criteria (RDC). The sample consists of 57 cases with schizophrenia, 8 cases with schizo-affective psychosis and 23 cases with affective psychoses. Bellak's Ego Function Assessment Test was given to all these patients. The test does not show any significant differences between the schizo-affective and the schizophrenic groups. Some significant differences are found between the schizo-affective group and the group of affective psychosis. The findings do not validate schizo-affective psychosis as a diagnostic category.
