To assess relationship between schizophrenia and family relational structure of adolescent, Family
System Test (a projective technique to quantitative and qualitative analysis of family relational
structure) and Family Adaptability and Cohesion Scale (FACESII-CV) were conducted. 86
schizoids and 221 matched adolescent controls both aged 12 to 18 portrayed their families in
typical, ideal and conflict situations by FAST and finished FACESII-CV. Results indicate that
schizoid's families show less cohesion, more extreme hierarchy and more unbalanced family
relational structures than controls, which can be interpreted from a family systems approach as
well as from a clinical perspective.

Jinfang Huang, Junjie Chu, Shengyang Army General Hospital, China
84 patients with panic attack were explored for their psychological health and personality,
comparing with control group. Symptom checklist(SCL-90), Eysenck Personality Questionnaire
(EPQ) and panic attack diagnosis standard of DSM-IV were used to test both groups. The
incidence of anxiety, depression, obsession, somatic disorder and panic attack in panic attack
patients was higher than control group. There is tendency of becoming neurosis and psychosis,
and emotional instability in panic attack patients.

University, Korea
The purpose of this study is to examine whether chronic schizophrenics have impaired theory-of
mind (ToM). Participants include
40 schizophrenics living in community and 40 non-clinical normal adults. Each participant's
responses to 30 non-verbal comic strips presenting social situation of 40 will be obtained to assess
their ability to infer other's intention and beliefs. During the second trial of task, prompting
questions turning their attention to social cues will be addressed to all subjects and examined if
those questions will improve schizophrenic individual’s performance. It is assumed that
schizophrenic group can take advantage of prompting questions.

Block-designed BOLD fMRI was performed on 20 chronic schizophrenic inpatients and 10
healthy controls. The subjects were asked to making judgments for some personality trait
adjectives presented on the screen. They should answer if the adjective suitably describing
themselves (self-relevance), or other (other-relevance), or the word is negative or positive
(semantic judgment). During self-referential processing, the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) and
posterior cingulated gyrus were activated in normal subjects. While in schizophrenia the activation
was significantly reduced. The results suggested that MPFC is strongly associated with
self-referential processing. The reduced activation in schizophrenic patients reflects dysfunction of
MPFC, and provides.
