    Abstract:
    The results of long-term follow-up studies indicate the existence of significant differences in the outcome of neurotic and psychopathic states. The most unfavorable outcome was seen in patients with asthenic and unstable psychopathy. A classification of a "good" and "poor" outcome of the disease by means of a computer permitted to distinguish the most significant anamnestic and clinical signs indicating a possible unfavorable prognosis. In the most unfavorable variant of the disease (21% of 124 psychopathic patients) in asthenic, unstable, excitative and hysterical psychopathy there were states with prevalently neurotic and psychopathic symptomatology, nonspecific for any of the above-mentioned forms of psychopathy.
