R Abrams and MA Taylor
The authors report data gathered from a consecutive sample of 88
psychiatric inpatients who were diagnosed as having either manic disorder
or schizo-affective disorder, manic type, according to Research Diagnostic
Criteria (1) similar to those proposed for DSM-III. There were no
differences between diagnostic groups on clinical psychopathological or
demographic variables, individual or family history, or treatment response.
