Complete fusion of the concept of "schizophrenia"
Abstracts. Neuropathology and Psychiatry. Ewald G. (Z. f. D. Ges. Neurol, u. Psychiatrie. Bd. 123. H. 2/3. 1930) warns against the complete fusion of the concept of "schizophrenia", a concept of purely psychological with the concept of dementia praecox. The tautological use of both terms is completely wrong, for the psychological study of the schizophrenic essence, of the reaction of experience, is not the study of the dementia praecox disease itself. Better to use dementia schizophrenica or with Kleist "schizophrenic defective psychoses" (schizophrene Defektpsychosen) as synonyms for dementia praecox.
