  • Title: [Relations between intrapsychic and familial structures in schizophrenic patients].
    Author: Maier C, Trütsch K.
    Journal: Psychother Psychosom Med Psychol; 1994 Dec; 44(12):419-25. PubMed ID: 7846269.
    Abstract:
    The authors present the results of a research project that points out the connections of the clinical signs of schizophrenia with the intrapsychic space referring to the repertory-grid test and with the circumplex model of family dimensions (Olson-Faces II). The acute psychotic episode was connected with characteristic arrangements of the representational elements in groups and with disintegration of the family rules system. Also the postpsychotic phase displayed a characteristic constellation of the representational elements in the repertory-grid test. The results of the research project underline the important role of the affects during both the acute and the postpsychotic phase of schizophrenia as organizing and integrating factors of the affective-cognitive reference system described by Ciompi.
