Abstract: 

This is the sixth and final paper of a series studying various symptomatic, physical and social aspects of a sample of 47 cases of infantile psychosis (I.P.) and 33 cases of late onset psychosis (L.O.P.). They were seen at the Park Hospital for Children, Oxford, and the Newcastle Child Psychiatry Unit.

The results of routine psychological testing are shown in Table I. In older, more accessible,and brighter children the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children or the 1960 revision of the Stanford-Binet (Form L-M) was used and in other cases the Merrill-Palmer.
