Some sex differences in the clinical picture of adolescent schizophrenia were demonstrated, for instance, an earlier onset in girls, a prevalence in the clinical picture of affective disorders. The clinical picture of boys was mainly characterized by psychopath-like behaviour and its specificity in adolescents of both sexes. There were also other sex differences in the clinical picture, development and prognosis of the disease.
