In a random group of rural schizophrenic patients living in some areas of Vinnitsa Province (n = 812) the authors studied the degree of social and occupational disadaptation of patients with various patterns of the disease course. The article presents data characterizing the level of maladaptive effect of the schizophrenic process in a rural population of patients. The authors consider (using the criteria of working ability and marital status) the dependence of disrupted social and occupational adaptation of patients on a number of clinical (pattern and degree of process progression) and social (professional training before the disease, educational and marital status) factors.
