The Assessment and Prediction of Outcome in Affective Disorders

Abstract
While detailed and systematic studies have been carried out on the course and outcome of manic-depressive psychoses (Kraepelin, 1921; Rennie, 1942; Poort, 1945; Lundquist, 1945; Astrup et al., 1959; Olsen, 1961; Bratfos and Haug, 1968), depressive illnesses (Lewis, 1936; Kay et al, 1969) and anxiety states (Miles et al., 1951; Eitinger, 1955; Greer and Cawley, 1966), there is little information concerning the prognosis of affective disorders as a whole.
