Abstract
The use of reliable instruments to collect relevant data in psychiatry is required before studying determinants of psychiatric disorders. Although genetic research in psychiatry devotes large sums of money to biological studies, the investment made in time and effort to describe the clinical features of the subjects being studied is often lacking. Variation of types and amount of clinical information available, psychopathological explanations of the information collected, and differences in definitions of disorders probably explain great discrepancies of results before the 70s.
