Adult-Onset Schizophrenia
[ send me this paper ]
A 9 page literature review. Schizophrenia has been extensively researched over the years, but in many ways it remains an enigma. The overwhelming majority of cases occur in young adults, but some cases do not develop until much later in life. The purpose here is to review the literature addressing factors associated with adult-onset schizophrenia. The paper concludes that though much more information is available on adult-onset schizophrenia now than was available in the past, real determinations that can be widely generalized still have yet to be discovered. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Agnosia
[ send me this paper ]
This 10 page paper describes the different categories of agnosia. This is a condition that can affect any of the five senses and, in general, results in a dissociation between the sensory stimulus and the associative memory related to that stimulus. For instance, if a patient with visual agnosia were shown a picture of an object, he would be unable to recall the name of the object. It is not a memory disorder; it is a perceptual-associative disorder caused primarily by stroke and brain injury. The several classifications of agnosia are discussed. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
