Compared the early recollections of 40 schizophrenic, paranoid‐type patients and 37 “normal” individuals. The themes of the early recollections of the two groups were significantly different. The normal group reported events such as illness, injury, and attention‐getting more frequently than the schizophrenic group, whereas the early recollections of the schizophrenic group contained more variety of the themes than those of the normal group.
