Treatment of Childhood Schizophrenia

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  08 February 2018

Extract

One and a half years after she had been excluded from school a little girl of six and a half years was being watched by me as she took her part in the school assembly and entered into the normal activities of the A stream of her class. Some two months later the head teacher telephoned us excitedly to say that this same child had put up her hand in the full school assembly and answered the question correctly. There is perhaps little remarkable in this until I add that this child, Gwen, in October, 1952, was diagnosed as a schizophrenic and has, with two others, been treated along the lines indicated in a previous paper.∗
