Abstract: | ![]() Compared 3 methods of differentiating paranoid from nonparanoid schizophrenics: (a) official hospital diagnosis; (b) behavior ratings based on specific characteristics; and (c) self-report using scales, e.g., the MMPI. It was found that a and b were significantly correlated, while c correlated with neither of the 2 techniques in 97 males from a Veterans Administration hospital with the general diagnosis of schizophrenia.
