Cognitive disorders of schizophrenics as well as subjects with affective psychosis were studied with the aid of 10 tests. Differences between schizophrenics and patients with affective psychosis could hardly be detected. Subgroup differences within the two broad diagnostic categories are pointing to the importance of the severity of illness. However, some differences between two small samples (N = 9) carefully matched with regard to several relevant aspects - especially concerning the severity of disorder - show that the diagnostic category is not wholly unimportant. Judged on the basis of these differences, there are probably no deficits of a fundamentally different nature; the assumption of divergent cognitive styles or defence mechanisms considering comparable basic deficits seems more plausible.
借助10项测试对精神分裂症患者以及情感性精神病患者的认知障碍进行了研究。几乎无法检测出精神分裂症患者与情感性精神病患者之间的差异。这两个广泛诊断类别中的亚组差异表明了疾病严重程度的重要性。然而，在几个相关方面（尤其是疾病严重程度）仔细匹配的两个小样本（N = 9）之间的一些差异表明，诊断类别并非完全不重要。基于这些差异判断，可能不存在本质上不同的缺陷；考虑到可比的基本缺陷，假设存在不同的认知风格或防御机制似乎更合理。
