Social, Emotional, and Intellectual Behavior at School among Children at High Risk for Schizophrenia.

Watt, Norman F.; And Others

Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v50 n2 p171-81 Apr 1982

Classroom teachers rated school behavior of 44 children, aged 12-17, of schizophrenic parents and 70 children of normal parents. Results showed children of schizophrenic parents had greater interpersonal disharmony, less scholastic motivation, more emotional instability, and lower intelligence than control children, but differences in introversion were not significant.
