DEFINITIONS OF TERMS 35 who, following a psychotic schizophrenic episode, are no longer psychotic. 295.7 Schizophrenia, schizo-affective type This category is for patients showing a mixture of schizophrenic symptoms and pronounced elation or depression. Within this category it may be useful to distinguish excited from depressed types as follows: 295.73* Schizophrenia, schizo-affective type, excited* 295.74* Schizophrenia, schizo-affective type, depressed* 295.8* Schizophrenia, childhood type* This category is for cases in which schizophrenic symptoms appear before puberty. The condition may be manifested by autistic, atypical, and withdrawn behavior; failure to develop identity separate from the mother's; and general unevenness, gross immaturity and inadequacy in development. These developmental defects may result in mental retardation, which should also be diagnosed. (This category is for use in the United States and does not appear in ICD-8. It is equivalent to "Schizophrenic reaction, childhood type" in DSM-I.) 295.90* Schizophrenia, chronic undifferentiated type* This category is for patients who show mixed schizophrenic symptoms and who present definite schizophrenic thought, affect and behavior not classifiable under the other types of schizophrenia. It is distinguished from Schizoid personality (q.v.). (This category is equivalent to "Schizophrenic reaction, chronic undifferentiated type" in DSM-I except that it does not include cases now diagnosed as Schizophrenia, latent type and Schizophrenia, other [and unspecified] types.) 295.99* Schizophrenia, other [and unspecified] types* This category is for any type of schizophrenia not previously described. (In DSM-I "Schizophrenic reaction, chronic undifferentiated type" included this category and also what is now called Schizophrenia, latent type and Schizophrenia, chronic undifferentiated type.) 296 Major affective disorders ((Affective psychoses)) This group of psychoses is characterized by a single disorder of mood, either extreme depression or elation, that dominates the mental life of the patient and is responsible for whatever loss of contact he has with his environment.
