Current concepts about schizophrenics and family relationships.

This review notes that two new series of studies of the family relationships of schizophrenics are now emerging. One approach, giving special emphasis to the concept of communication deviance, examines family relationships in prospective longitudinal studies of children and adolescents who are at increased risk for later psychopathology, including schizophrenia. A second approach studies expressed emotion of key relatives as a predictor of subsequent course of illness in persons who already have been diagnosed as schizophrenic. A considerable diversity of methods for studying family relationships are now available, some with patient absent and some with the family members observed indirect interaction with one another. Implications for pathogenesis and treatment are discussed, as well as methodological and substantive problems requiring further investigation.

Measures of aggression in questionnaire ratings and stories from the Apperceptive Personality Test.

The present study investigated relationships between judges' ratings of hostility from the content of eight TAT-like stories and scores on Hostile Feelings and Hostile Actions scales of the Apperceptive Personality Test. This test was administered to 104 college students volunteers (53 women, 51 men), who received extra credit on examination scores for their participation. Each subject made up 8 stories to stimulus pictures and then filled out 8 objectively scorable questionnaires about their stories from the Apperceptive Personality Test. The stories were rated by two "blind" judges for hostile feelings and hostile activities using Fine's 1955 scoring criteria. Agreement of judges ranged from .47 to .80. Correlations of judge's ratings with Apperceptive Personality Test scores were .13 for Hostile Feelings and .41 (df = 102, p < .01) for Hostile Actions. Thus questionnaires scores for Hostile Feelings are unrelated and scores for Hostile Actions only moderately related to judge's ratings of story content.
