In the course of the ten-year period 1979-1988 the authors subjected to psychiatric examination or hospitalized 52 Ethiopian university students. The authors were concerned with the problem whether in the development and character of the psychopathological symptoms factors of the different cultural environment participated. University students sent to Czechoslovakia are a specific group which is not representative of the Ethiopian population. This may be the reason why the revealed symptoms did not differ markedly from conditions in the local population. This applies in particular to neurotic disorders, among which the neurasthenic syndrome predominated. In 14 hospitalized students schizophrenia was diagnosed 6 times, endogenous depression 6 times and neurotic symptoms due to maladaptation twice. The schizophrenic attacks presented classical symptoms, after their regression there was however, complete remission and thus the original diagnosis was somewhat doubtful.
在1979年至1988年这十年间，作者对52名埃塞俄比亚大学生进行了精神检查或使其住院治疗。作者关注的问题是，不同文化环境因素是否参与了精神病理症状的发展和特征形成。被派往捷克斯洛伐克的大学生是一个特殊群体，并不代表埃塞俄比亚人口。这可能就是所发现的症状与当地人口状况没有明显差异的原因。这尤其适用于神经症性障碍，其中神经衰弱综合征占主导。在14名住院学生中，精神分裂症被诊断出6次，内源性抑郁症6次，适应不良导致的神经症症状2次。精神分裂症发作表现出典型症状，然而在发作消退后，完全缓解，因此最初的诊断有些可疑。
