  • Title: The diagnosis of 'hysteria'.
    Author: Reed JL.
    Journal: Psychol Med; 1975 Feb; 5(1):13-7. PubMed ID: 1118526.
    Abstract:
    A study of 120 inpatients diagnosed as suffering from hysteria is presented and the validity of the diagnosis questioned. Clinical study showed that 13% showed only hysterical symptoms, 33% showed hysterical symptoms occuring with affective symptoms, 28% showed affective symptomatology only, and the remainder were either of other or uncertain diagnostic grouping. It is concluded that the 13% are suffering from a condition that can only be diagnosed as hysteria.
