[Systems analysis and logico-mathematical modeling of syndromal predilection in delusional disorders]
Abstract:
The syndrome-forming effect of some factors in delusional psychoses was studied by the probabilistic statistical method. For each syndrome a combination of predilective correlations was found. A complex characteristic of the syndromal predilection of the disease permitted to evaluate more comprehensively not only its typical expression, but also possible deviations in specific cases. The formal assessment of pathogenetic correlations may be used for compiling computer programmes of psychoses analyses.
