[Association meaning of the emotionally aggressive words in a group of schizophrenic patients and in healthy controls. Semantic analysis].

Associational responses from 128 schizophrenic people and 120 healthy ones were collected. Four words with aggressive emotional shade were given as the stimuli. Semantic analysis of stimulus words was made, which made it possible to obtain a range of content categories. The collected material was analysed then according to them. Significant differences in five content categories were discovered. Basing on these differences we can infer that associational meaning at schizophrenic people is in some way varied. It was also possible to draw some conclusions concerning emotional life of the examined people.
