Abstract

Half-amplitude recovery of electrodermal responses is compared in children of schizophrenic parents (high-risk subjects) and children of depressed or normal parents. The results are dissimilar to those reported by Mednick and colleagues on a Danish high-risk sample. No significant differences emerged among the three groups in our study. Recovery did not differ according to sex or severity of illness of the schizophrenic parent. Recoveries of high-risk subjects separated from their homes were not shorter than recoveries of subjects who remained home. Recovery time recorded in childhood was unrelated to global adjustment in adolescence.
