Where this comes from

Abstract

The use of pronouns and causal attributions in personal accounts has been analysed to distinguish between schizophrenia and mood disorders. The implications for both cognitive processing and the underlying pathology of symptoms are explored. Context is identified as a key variable in the analysis and interpretation of text.
