    Abstract:
    A comparative clinical-epidemiological investigation of 193 patients with long-standing periodic schizophrenia (over 20 years) living in different regions of the country (Moscow and Andizhan) made it possible to determine the general regularities and characteristics of the social and occupational readaptation of the given group of patients. Marriage and good relationships within the family were consistent with better readaptation potentialities in both populations. With regard to other factors, patients with higher and incomplete higher education engaged in mental occupations showed better results in the Moscow population while patients with general and special secondary education engaged in qualified manual work exhibited better prognosis in the Andizhan population. A low level of education and qualification (for the Moscow population) the lack of a spouse and unsatisfactory family relations as well as the presence of a documentally validated group of disability (particularly Group II) were significantly more frequently correlated with social and occupational deadaptation of the patients studied.
