On the basis of a clinical study of neurotic development in 79 patients suffering from stammering, the authors present a psychopathological analysis of the polymorphic picture of the disease with stable neurotic and pathocharacterological disturbances and with the presence of peculiar superworship formations. Five clinical variants of the neurotic development in stammering have been identified: astheno-depressive, sensitive, superworshiphypochondriac, obsessive-phobic and hysterical. The formation of the neurotic development is considered in the ontogenetic aspect. The authors analyze a complex interrelationship of constitutional, evolutional-biological and psychogenic factors.
