来自各种来源的数据似乎支持这样一种假设,即通常被认为是精神分裂症基础的“封闭”或“隐居”人格可能是长期“文化隔离”的结果,即与亲密和同情的社会接触分离。医院记录中的大量病例显示了这种隔离的一些历史,许多甚至显示出患者曾经正常社交,只是在长期隔离之后才发展出隐居。对被单独监禁的囚犯和其他空间隔离的人的描述表明,随着时间的推移,许多人都出现了典型的类痴呆症状。对早期社会状况的研究表明,大量精神分裂症患者来自社会混乱非常明显的社区,很难实现亲密的社会生活。在社会交往充分的地方,类人猿人格类型很少或完全缺乏。最后,通过重新建立社会联系进行治疗取得了一定程度的成功。
Data from various sources appear to support the hypothesis that the "shut-in" or "seclusive" personality, which is generally considered to be the basis of schizophrenia, may be the result of an extended period of "cultural isolation," that is, separation from intimate and sympathetic social contacts. A large number of the cases in the hospital records show some history of this isolation, and many even show evidence that the patient had once been normally sociable and developed the seclusiveness only after a long period of isolation. Descriptions of prisoners in solitary confinement, and other spatially isolated peoples, show that in time many develop the typical schizoid symptoms. An examination of the early social situation indicates that the large number of schizophrenics came from communities in which the social disorganization was very marked and an intimate social life was difficult to achieve. Where social contacts are adequate, the schizoid personality type is rare or completely lacking. Finally, treatment by re-establishing social contacts has shown some degree of success.
