abstract="Juvenile psychoses are on the whole rare, at any rate rarer than psychoses in adults. The former commonly used conception of the disease, hebephrenia, as a pubertal form of schizophrenia has largely lost its significance. The cardinal symptoms are delusions and disordered mental processes in addition to anxiety and states of excitement. The particular importance of this disease lies in the individual experience of this disturbance of the reference environment which is an existential threat to a newly formed personality and its relation to the environment. The difficulty in classifying it among the psychoses on the one hand and as a neurosis on the other has produced a term &quot;borderline&quot; for it, characterized by an infantile incompatibility with positive and negative tendencies in himself and in reference persons and through the lack of a stable reality of reference.<p /><p>Language: de</p>",
