8.The Crisis of Psychiatry: Psychiatric Patients, Quo Vadis?.
Journal of Korean Neuropsychiatric Association 2000;39(4):675-679
In the year two thousand and following years, there will be tremendous changes in the field of psychiatry. At this critical period, we should rethink the identity of psychiatry. The characteristics and problems of psychiatry in the near future include a) 'mindless' psychiatry confined into the brain cell, b) a continuous evolution of non-psychiatric practitioners, medical or nonmedical, c) the atrophy of psychiatric practice due to economic pressure by society, and d) psychiatric policy of functional diagnostic criteria and guidelines in practice. The above situations can result in a) the more superficial and easy going attitude of psychiatry in practice, b) superficial understanding of patients and inadequate treatment outccome, c) patients' frustration and seeking help from alternative or quasi-practitioners, and tele-psychiatry or cyber space. Psychiatrists' recognition of a crisis, active coping with the problems and harmonized and integrated education were suggested for the better contribution.

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the characteristics of relationship between the frequency of various persecutors in schizophrenic delusion and religious orientation with other religious variables. METHODS: The subjects were 105 schizophrenic patients. Diagnostic criteria used in this study was DSM-III-R. Religious orientation was assessed with the Intrinsic and Extrinsic Religious Orientation Scale. Demographic data, religious data, and contents of persecutory delusion were also analyzed. RESULTS: 1) The group obsessed with religious delusion regarded God, ghosts, and supernatural beings as persecutors. Predominantly, they used to have religious affiliation with protestantism before schizophrenic onset while being "intrinsic" in religious attitude. They also participated in religious activities more than 2 times every week. 2) The group who regarded religious leaders and shamans as persecutors predominantly had a religious affiliation after schizophrenic onset with "proreligious" and "intrinsic" religious attitude while some of them never participated in religious activity. 3) The group who regarded predominantly family and relatives as persecutors have a religious affiliation with buddhism and others(shamanism and etc) after schizophrenic onset with "extrinsic" religious attitude. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that religious orientation and other religious factors seem to affect persecutory delusion formation in schizophrenic patients.
