Abstract:
The prevalence of FRSs of Schneider was studied in three groups of functional psychoses. They were most common in schizophrenia (53.3 %) followed by affective psychosis (33.3 %) and reactive psychosis (23.3 %). Thought broadcast, thought insertion and thought withdrawal were commonest in schizophrenia. There was a suggestion that made volitional acts and commenting voices were more commonly present in patients with a diagnosis of depression. There was no distinctive FRS profile in reactive psychosis. A strong correlation also emerged between FRS and a family history of schizophrenia.
