[Effects of time variables (time-blind, time gap) on quantitative evaluation of psychopathology].

Are the objectivity and sensibility of quantitative psychopathology influenced by certain methodological conditions (time-blind evaluation or not, chronological order or random order, suppression of the time gap between two evaluations or not)? Different evaluations of AMDP videotaped interviews were not able to demonstrate systematic effects of these temporal conditions on the evaluation itself. Other variables (monotony, order of sequences, verbal inertia, contingencies) might well play a greater role. Within the methodological limits of the present study, the time-blind evaluation was the most sensitive.

[Computerized letter to the attending physician. Practical application of the AMDP (Association of Methodology and Documentation in Psychiatry)].

The authors have elaborated a micro-computerized program which enables --on the basis of the Psychopathology Form (plus optionally the Somatic Form) of the AMDP-System and of an open-language diagnosis and treatment --to print out instantly a semi-standardized letter and a syndromic profile of 10 or 13 factors. This realization is favorably acknowledged by general practitioners and medical inspectors thanks to its speed of transmission, to its brevity and to the clarity of the syndromic reduction of the clinical picture. Other advantages lie in the greater validity of factor scores as compared to items scores, the standardization and readability of the clinical files, and the extension of the AMDP data bank.

[Personality of the dyslexic child. Clinical data and contribution of projective technics].

The present paper focuses its attention on the personality disorders among relatively old dyslexic children whose symptom persists beyong logopedic reeducations of a long duration. The degree of disorientation of our subjects runs parallel to the degree of fragmentation of personality. In the Rorschach and TAT tests, the image of the Self is ill-differenciated from a poorly structured maternal image and pleads for a primary defect of the mother-child relation at a preobjectal level. The paternal function is obvious but ill-invested, therefore the relationship between severe and persisting dyslexia on the one hand, and psychosis on the other.

[Logical analysis of the respective influence of 3 experimental variables using a diagram by L. Carroll. Application of this method to a clinical trial of 2 forms of Noveril].

The analysis of the results gathered in a double-blind randomized cross-over clinical trial of dibenzepine was systematized in order to evidence the relation existing between the experimental variables and the effects measured. The suggested method of analysis is based on logic and makes profit of a diagram by Carroll. This method seemingly permits rigourous and clear conclusions.
