Abstract

On the example of 257 patients with paranoid schizophrenia, who were in conditions of long-term social isolation, the most common forms of non-suicidal autoaggression were studied. It has been established that non-suicidal self-harm by such patients is characterized by pronounced clinical diversity, which is actively influenced by the rules of behavior inherent in the criminal subculture.
