RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Psychopathological verbal expression of self-perceived stress in three groups of psychotic patients A1 Jimeno Bulnes, Natalia A1 Jimeno Valdés, Agustín A1 Vargas Aragón, Martín Lorenzo A1 López Fernández, María Nieves K1 Esquzofrenia AB Self-perceived stress in 293 psychotic patients (schizophrenic, toxic and brief reactivepsychoses) and a control group of 40 sane individuáis was evaluated by means of theFrankfurt Complaint Questionnaire. For this purpose, scores obtained in 6 'complementaryÍtems' of the third versión of this questionnaire were studied, both in global and indetailed form. These Ítems reflect coping mechanisms exerted towards situationsperceived as stressful which can produce clinical manifestations similar to the wellknown'negative symptoms' of schizophrenia. Results show that self-perceived stress inall groups of patients is significantly higher than in the control group. In contrast, no significantdifferences among the three groups of patients are obtained. In conclusión, wepoint out the relevance of studying the psychotic patient's self-perceived stress in orderto detect and minimize or even avoid the patient's risk situations, independen! of his/herdiagnosis. This will be especially useful to obtain optimal conditions for rehabilitation PB Karger SN 0254-4962 YR 1997 FD 1997 LK http://uvadoc.uva.es/handle/10324/14929 UL http://uvadoc.uva.es/handle/10324/14929 LA eng NO Psychopathology. 1997;30(1):39-48 NO Producción Científica DS UVaDOC RD 25-abr-2024
