Based on an extensive literature review the evidence for gender differences in the course of schizophrenia is examined. If gender differences were reported, which was the case in about one half of the studies, they were almost exclusively in favour of female patients. This applied similarly to hospital career, psychopathology, and social adjustment. Unfortunately, due to methodological limitations the results are often difficult to interpret. However, in a number of recent studies of high methodological standard, gender differences could also be shown. It is discussed to what extent a greater vulnerability or exposure to social stress on the part of males and/or better coping resources and greater social support on the part of females might be responsible for this finding.

There are many factors that influence the manifestation and course of child psychiatric disorders. Such influences are: genetic factors and temperament, natural course of the disorder, developmental factors, age and sex, socio-familiar influences, systematic influences and accidental influences, risk factors and protective factors. With regard to the course of child psychiatric disorders, three types can be distinguished: disorders which continue into adulthood (continuity type), disorder with strong dependence on developmental factors, diminishing from childhood to adulthood, and newly manifested disorders starting during adolescence and following the same rules as psychiatric disorders in adulthood. In this regard the continuity hypothesis applies only to some child psychiatric disorders and not to others. Besides the three types concerning the course of child psychiatric disorders, it should be mentioned that some disorders change their symptomatology on the way to adulthood. For example, hyperkinetic children frequently develop antisocial behaviour, delinquency and alcoholism during adult age.

“…Diagnostic classification varies: some studies use one derived from adult psychiatry, e.g. Annesley (1961), Masterson (1958); some use Rutter's (1965) classification of disorders in children, e.g. Warren (1965).…”

The paper describes the therapeutic programme of the Young People's Unit, Macclesfield. Admission is based on a therapeutic contract agreed with the youngster and family. Data on the first 150 admission to the Unit are presented. The information was collected from all referring agencies and a sample of youngsters and parents after an average period of two years since discharge. Results were similar to those of other follow-up studies of discharges from adolescent units, i.e. 78 per cent of neurotic disorders, 53 per cent of mixed neurotic and conduct disorders and 47 per cent of conduct disorders showed improvement. There was a high incidence of recurrence of the most significant presenting symptom (72 per cent). Nevertheless, referrers and youngsters showed a positive attitude to the treatment experience. The possible relationship of this to the contract system is discussed. A longer period of stay was found to correlate positively with improvement in conduct disorders. There is a need for further research into what aspects of a treatment milieu produce significant and lasting changes in conduct disorders.
