Extract

The study of a single case, though less conclusive, sometimes heralds methodological advance. Hopefully, other investigators will be able to replicate the findings on a large number of subjects. This report, based on the case history of Bob R., describes in detail how the Organic Integrity Test (OIT) may be used as a daily therapeutic index in the treatment of schizophrenia.
