A clinico-psychological study covered 28 children aged 4-13 years with protracted hypomanic states (2-8 years) in 3-10-year-long schizophrenia. The authors investigated peculiarities of the development of cognitive activity (thought and perception). Comparison was made between groups of schizophrenics and control groups (the syndrome of motor disinhibition, schizoid psychopathy). The findings of a clinico-psychological examination have helped to elucidate differences in the development of cognitive activity in the above groups of children which may be used for the differential diagnosis and prognosis of the disease course.

The presence of a dominant temperament, or protracted hypomania, is enough by itself to explain an individual's engagement in a wide range of activities, not necessarily sociopathic or violent.
