Abstract

In a syndrome validation study, four groups of patients suffering from conversion disorders, anxiety states, obsessive-compulsive disorder and emotional disorders, as well as a healthy control group, were compared. The following findings emerged: besides female preponderance and greater age, a higher rate of low SES subjects and social migration patients suffering from conversion disorders displayed a greater proportion of psychiatric and medical diseases in their parental heritage.
