62 out of 68 acute psychosis patients who were initially recruited from the Bikaner Centre in 1982 for the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) study on "phenomenology and natural history of acute psychosis" were assessed after completion of 10 years in 1992-93 on SCAAPS and PSE with the objective of studying the long term course and outcome of acute psychosis. The results show that 35 (56.45%) patients of acute brief episode of psychosis never had any psychotic illness during the course of follow-up. Remission was significantly better in the young, the unmarried, in those who belonged to the Hindu religion and in those who developed the full blown psychosis abruptly within 48 hours. Other sociodemographic, personal history variables, and symptomatology could not distinguish this remitted group from the rest of the patients.
1982 年，印度医学研究理事会（ICMR）在比卡内尔中心招募了 68 名急性精神病患者，其中 62 名患者在 1992-93 年完成了 10 年的 SCAAPS 和 PSE 评估，目的是研究急性精神病的长期病程和结果。结果显示，35 名（56.45%）急性短暂精神病患者在随访过程中从未出现任何精神病。在年轻人、未婚者、印度教徒和在 48 小时内突然出现全面精神病的患者中，缓解情况明显更好。其他社会人口统计学、个人病史变量和症状学不能将缓解组与其他患者区分开来。
