Schneider's first rank symptoms--prevalence, diagnostic use and prognostic implications

J Radhakrishnan et al. Br J Psychiatry. 1983 Jun.

Abstract

An evaluation of the prevalence of Schneiderian first-rank symptoms, and their diagnostic and prognostic value is described. 35.2 per cent of schizophrenic patients had first-rank symptoms. The presence of first-rank symptoms did not indicate either chronicity of illness or a poor outcome.
