[Paranoid syndromes in the involution (author's transl)].
Conditions of outbreak and chronification of paranoid syndromes, including the existence of an "axial syndrome" and behaviour theories are hypothetically summarized. The individual characteristics of patients with the first paranoid symptoms during involution appear to depend mainly on three factors: the theme of the delusion seems to be connected with the age at the onset, in more than half of the male patients exogenous psychoorganic symptoms were observed, and in females however predominantly manic-depressive syndroms could be found.
