[The comparative results of a clinico-economic and socioeconomic study of 2 populations of schizophrenic patients under different organizational forms of psychiatric care].

1992 
: The authors have designed two variants of the "verbal projective test" (VPT) in view of the lack of a projective method genetically similar to the TAT, according to which, however, emotionally saturated, indefinite phrases as regards the content could be used as stimulus material. Theoretically, it could be of special interest in psychopathological cases associated with thinking disorders, as well as "compensate" for the tendency toward TAT aging. Using VPT 19 probands with little progressive neurosis-like schizophrenia and 19 probands with lingering neuroses were examined. The findings were estimated polyfactorially in terms of the main assumptions of TAT interpretation but with a mandatory inclusion into the analysis of the lexico-grammatical evaluation of the stories. It has been established in the course of the work that the leading differences in the delimiting of neuroses and little progressive neurosis-like schizophrenia are emotional disorders (their character and intensity) diagnosed, equally to certain thinking disorders, with the aid of the new method. It has been also shown that the new VPT is fit for analysis of the speech of the persons suffering from various mental disorders.
