Family Psychiatric Morbidity, Parental Deprivation and Socio-Economic Status in Cases of Mania

H. D. CHOPRA M.D., M.R.C.Psych., M.A.N.Z.C.P.1

1 Consultant Psychiatrist, Lakeside Hospital, P.O. Box 63, Ballarat, Victoria, 3350, Australia

The present study, based on hospital cases from India, reveals no significant differences between bipolar (manic depressive) and unipolar (recurrent) manics when compared with `first-attack manics' with regard to factors like psychiatric morbidity in the parents and sibs, parental loss during childhood and social class of the patient. Venkoba Rao (1973) also found no differences between bipolar and monopolar endogenous depressives.
