The symptomatology of 56 male veterans considering compensation claims was compared to the symptomatology seen in 163 veterans not considering such claims. Antisocial behaviors, somatic/neurotic complaints, and persecutory ideas were all positively correlated with consideration of a claim. Although the symptom profile is consistent with diagnosis of antisocial personality, a correlation with this diagnosis was not established. Nonetheless, the clinical profile does suggest a link between noncompensable disorders and consideration of a claim. The implications of this finding for military and Veterans Administration psychiatry are discussed.
将56名考虑提出赔偿申请的男性退伍军人的症状学与163名未考虑此类申请的退伍军人的症状学进行了比较。反社会行为、躯体/神经症性主诉和迫害观念均与提出申请呈正相关。尽管症状特征与反社会人格诊断一致，但未确立与该诊断的相关性。尽管如此，临床特征确实表明不可赔偿的疾病与提出申请之间存在联系。讨论了这一发现对军事和退伍军人管理局精神病学的意义。
