Schizophrenia in Adolescence
Holzman, Philip S.; Grinker, Roy R., Sr.
Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 3, 4, 267-79, Dec 74
Several explanations for adolescence as the beginning of the high risk age, particularly for the schizophrenias, are offered. After discussing the nature of adolescence as distinguished from puberty, and then considering the nature of schizophrenia, some data are reported from a long range study of young adult psychiatric patients, both schizophrenic and non-schizophrenic.
