[Clinical symptoms, pathopsychological peculiarities and mechanisms of biographic amnesia]
Abstract:
Clinical and pathopsychological analysis of 16 men, aged 15-53 years, was carried out. In premorbid stage, hysterical, hystero-epileptoid, schizoid, emotional-unstable features were found in 12 patients and personality accentuation--in 4 patients. There were the absence of marked cognitive disturbances and safety operational functions of intellect, i.e. memory. In all patients, the projective pathopsychological tests allowed determining subjectively significant disturbances of interpersonal communication that, in combination with selective character of amnesia and intact character of formal intellect, suggested functional mechanisms underlying the analyzing state.

Amnesia
The severity and duration of memory loss vary depending on the type and underlying cause. Amnesia is classified into two main types: retrograde and anterograde.
Retrograde amnesia is marked by the loss of memories formed before the onset of the condition. Patients may recall distant past events but often forget those occurring shortly before the incident.
