Review and Prospect
MAX FINK,

MD.

The dedication of Hillside Hospital as a Research Institute
has been a dream of many of its students—a dream that may
achieve realization in this decade. Dr. Tarachow was an early
proponent of this view; and both in his sponsorship of the Journal, and in his encouragement of research studies, he presaged
this development. He was also the inadvertent sire of the research studies in experimental psychiatry. While I was a resident in psychiatry in 1952, we collaborated in a study of the
relation of the early separation of child from a parent to the
adult choice of neurosis. Reviewing the hospital records of ﬁve
previous years we concluded that there was, indeed, a relation——
neurotic patients with obsessional neuroses had a signiﬁcantly,
greater incidence of separation than patients with hysterical
neuroses (2). This report was the beginning of the patient population studies described here.
Since 1954 the various programs in experimental psychiatry have
been devoted to an understanding of the mode of action of the psy-

chiatric therapies of the hospital. The techniques have been adapted
from descriptive and dynamic psychiatry, neuropsychology, electroencephalography, linguistics, pharmacology, and sociology. This report reviews these studies and presents support for the creation of
a Research Institute at Hillside.

aid of a grant award of the National Institute of Mental Health,
evaluations of patient improvement were shown to be dependent
both on changes in brain function and on psychological factors. As
our understanding of convulsive therapy developed, a general neurophysiologic-adaptive view of somatic therapies emerged (6).
A change in brain function was seen as a necessary condition for
behavioral change, with the type of change varying, depending upon
psychological and sociological characteristics of the subject (22, 25).
Thus, the mode of action was not seen as either “organic” or “psychological” but rather as the interaction of neurophysiological
changes and individual patterns of response and behavior.
This hypothesis was sustained in studies of convulsive and in
sulin coma therapies (21, 22); and the mode of action of the new
psychotropic agents was expressed within this hypothesis. It was suggested that psychotropic drugs would be effective to the extent that
persistent changes in brain function were induced; and that the type
of behavioral response would be related to the type of brain change,
and to individual premorbid psychologic (personality) patterns (6,
28, 40).

Convulsive Therapy Process: Seeking a measure of altered
neurophysiological change that was sensitive and suitable for repeated retests, various measures were studied including changes in
the face-hand test (1, 10, 13, 35), memory tests (17, 35), amount of
slow-wave activity in the EEG (16, 23) and confabulatory and denial
language patterns after amobarbital (3, 15). The latter two, EEG
and amobarbital tests, were the most sensitive indices of change in
convulsive therapy subjects. In one experiment, clinical ratings of
improvement were correlated with high degrees of change in these
indices (15, 16).
These observations were tested in a double-blind study in which
patients referred for electroshock were randomly assigned to either
convulsive or subconvulsive therapy. High degrees of electrographic
slow-wave activity and positive amobarbital tests were observed only
in the convulsive group; improvement rates were signiﬁcantly higher
in this group, and when subconvulsive subjects were retreated by
convulsive applications, the improvement rate was similar to the
convulsive group (22).
In subconvulsive applications, considerable electric current passes
between the electrodes. It was postulated that the therapeutic agent
was not the total electrical current per se, but the “all or none”
quality manifested by the grand-ma] seizure (9, 23, 42). The signiﬁ1.

cance of the grand-mal seizure was examined in a comparative study
of the inhalant convulsant, hexaﬂuorodiethylether (Indoklon), and
electrically induced seizures. Similar degrees of electrographic change,
improvement rates, types of behavioral adaptations, and changes in
neuropsychological task behavior were observed in both the inhalant
and in the electrically treated groups (49).
However, not all subjects manifesting high degrees of physiological change were evaluated as “improved.” In a descriptive typologic
study, ﬁve adaptive modes were described, empirically termed “eu—

phoric,” “hypomanic,” “somatization,” “paranoid-withdrawal," and
“panic.” While the ﬁrst two patterns were rated as “much improved,”
the latter two were seen as “unimproved" or “worse” (50).
In studies of psychological variables, it was reported that patients
rated “much improved” and “recovered” frequently manifested personality patterns akin to the explicit verbal denial personality type
(37). These patients expressed the “language of denial” more frequently than unimproved subjects, exhibiting such aspects as explicit.
denial, minimization, displacement and clichés (27). Other psychological indices also related to favorable outcome included high F
Scale score (42), Rorschach determinants of color, absent movement
and absent form-color (30, 45), and low educational achievement and
foreign birth (31).
2. Anticholinergz'c Compounds and Convulsive Therapy: Seek-ing a way to augment the degree of postconvulsive EEG slow-waveactivity, an anticholinergic compound diethazine, was given intravenously at various stages of the convulsive therapy process (20, 24)..
Unexpectedly, diethazine caused an immediate and sustained de-crease in EEG slowing, which was associated with marked changes.
in language and mood. In patients with denial language patterns.
(27), these could no longer be elicited. Instead of euphoria and wellbeing, the subjects became irritable, anxious, and complaining. In‘
subjects prior to convulsive or drug therapy, diethazine induced, ex-citement, tension, anxiety, and illusory sensations.
Subsequent studies with other central anticholinergic compounds"
and sympathomimetic hallucinogens showed behavior and electrographic patterns similar to diethazine. These observations led to the
suggestion that an increase in the cholinergic activity of the central
nervous system was the biochemical basis for the convulsive therapy

process (38).

Psychotropic Drugs and EEG: Following these studies, the:
neurophysiological changes induced by drugs were testedwithinan.

acute experimental-EEG setting. It was observed that phenothiazines
induced EEG synchronization and a shifting of the frequency spectrum to the slow frequencies; meprobamate and barbiturates, an
increased synchronization and a shift of the spectrum to fast frequencies; reserpine, an increased slowing with synchronization at low
dosages, and desynchronization at higher levels (18, 26, 28, 40). Imipramine induced desynchronization with a shift of frequencies to
the slow bands (33, 34). Each active psychotropic compound was thus
shown to have a characteristic frequency pattern.
Various other experimental compounds were also tested, and for
these no consistent electrographic pattern was recorded. These compounds have since been shown to have either no or very limited clinical psychotropic activity. The absence of behavioral change with these
compounds lent further support to the assumption that brain change
is a necessary condition for the action of psychotropic drugs.
These observations suggested that psychopharmacological agents
provide a means for eliciting various types of altered brain function
in contrast to the single pattern following convulsive therapy. Furthermore, the type of neurophysiological alteration, as reﬂected in
EEG synchrony and frequency patterns, was found to be related to
speciﬁed types of behavioral adaptation. The advantage of EEG techniques for the assay of new psychotropic agents and the technical
merits of electronic frequency analysis were assayed and described
(47, 52).
4. Insulin Coma Therapy:

In our insulin coma studies we con-

ﬁrmed earlier observations that persistent alterations of brain function were related to prolonged coma and spontaneous seizures; and
saw in this relationship support for a neurophysiologic-adaptive hypothesis. With the availability of the new psychotropic agent chlorpromazine, a controlled chlorpromazine-insulin coma study was undertaken in September, 1955. As patients were referred for insulin coma
they were randomly assigned to courses of either oral chlorpromazine
for at least three months in doses adjusted to fall short of toxicity;
or insulin coma, induced by a standard technique at least ﬁfty times
in each patient. While a number of minor differences were noted
in comparing the two therapies, the results at time of discharge
showed no statistical difference in the effectiveness of both treatments.
Neither treatment seemed to affect the basic schizophrenic process,
but chlorpromazine had the advantage of being safer, easier to administer, and better suited to long-term management (21). Concurrently, following the suggestion by the Creedmoor workers that

�EXPERIMENTAL PSYCHIATRIC RESEARCH

163

divided insulin doses were superior to single insulin doses, Blumberg
and Laderman (39) essayed this problem and demonstrated no significant merit to the multiple-dose technique. (In 1958, following the
general conﬁrmation of these observations, insulin coma therapy was
discontinued at Hillside).
5. Neuropsychology: Various psychophysical tests were adapted
from neuropsychology, where their signiﬁcance in brain-damaged
subjects had been demonstrated. The early studies assessed these tasks
as indices of altered brain function (35), and measured the range of
performances of psychiatric patients, who are generally assumed not
to be brain-damaged. Thus, memory function was assessed on immediate recall, after various interpolated learning tasks (17, 35),
as well as during convulsive therapy (17). Tactile perceptual tasks
were ﬁrst examined in the clinical population (1). Later, with more
sensitive electrical tactile stimuli, Korin (10) observed the range of
thresholds in different body parts, the changes with altered brain
function (10), and the inﬂuence of set (instruction) on performance
(36). We also studied the perception of embedded geometric ﬁgures
(43), tachistoscopic presentation of embedded color ﬁgures (55), perception of the visual upright (55), critical ﬂicker frequency (49), and
interference in reading time by delayed auditory feedback (55). For
each task, the degree of decrement in task performance was found to
be positively correlated with the amount of EEG slowing. Following
treatment completion, with the return of physiological indices to pretreatment levels, performance in these psychological tasks also returned to pretreatment levels, or higher—a betterment of performance ascribed to practice effect.
Concurrently, assessment of various psychological measures as
indices predictive of behavioral change during convulsive and drug
therapies led to studies of the Rorschach determinants (30, 45), California F Scale scores (30, 42), language patterns after amobarbital
(27), denial scores on interview (37), and the perception of the visual
upright and auditory feedback (55).
6. Psycholinguistics: Concurrent with the syntactic language
studies (27), analyses of other language patterns were undertaken,
both in a search for more objective indices of behavioral change and
to gain experience in the technical problems of tape analysis for psychotherapy research. An index of variability in the vocabulary of
speech, the type-token ratio (TTR) of consecutive samples of dyadic
speech, was extensively studied (7,41, 44, 46, 56, 57).
In convulsive therapy patients, signiﬁcant changes in TTR mean

�164

MAX FINK

and standard deviations were related both to the degree of induced
EEG slow-wave activity and to syntactic language patterns obtained
in independent structured interviews. It was noted that speech became more repetitive (lowered mean TTR) and more variable in
consecutive samples (41). In interviews before and after the intravenous administration of centrally active agents, similar changes were
observed. Agents which produced predominant synchronization patterns on the EEG were related to a decrease in mean TTR and an
increase in the standard deviation of scores, while desynchronizing
compounds elicited greater variability in speech patterns and decrease in variability of consecutive scores (44).
Other language measures studied included distress-relief quotients,
self-reference, and alterations in tense and person. It was suggested
that these psycholinguistic measures are useful techniques for the
operational analyses of physiological and psychological effects of
psychopharmacological agents (44, 46).
7. Brain Damage and Schizophrenia: Following his studies at
Ittleson Center, Pollack reviewed the relationship between age of
hospitalization, intellectual functioning and prognosis in schizophrenic children and adults. He noted that initial hospitalization in
childhood and adolescence was related to I. Q. scores in the subnor—
mal range, deviant performance on psychomotor tasks, and more frequent ratings of “unimproved” at hospital discharge than was initial
hospitalization as an adult. The early and insidious onset of the behavioral syndrome “schizophrenia” was thus related to brain dysfunction (54). Findings suggest that different subgroups of schizophrenia may be classiﬁed on the basis of neuropsychological deviancy.
8. Sociological Studies: Considerable interest in the family organization to which discharged patients were returning, the relation
of social factors to choice and results of psychiatric treatment, and the
speciﬁc problem of the relation of these factors to treatment referral
patterns led to a series of population studies. In one study (8), education, age, place of birth, and score on the California F Scale were
signiﬁcantly related to the type of therapy received and the utilization of adjunctive hospital services. In a second study (3]), duration
of hospitalization, discharge evaluation, and diagnosis were related
to the same social factors, while in a study of patient refusal of ECT,
similar relationships were observed (51).
These observations suggested a comparative interinstitution study,
and among three hospitals the relationships between social class and
other demographic variables (age, sex, education) to the clinical

�EXPERIMENTAL PSYCHIATRIC RESEARCH

165

variables of patient classiﬁcation (diagnosis), duration of hospitalization, selection of therapy, and discharge evaluation have been assessed.
Three teaching institutions were selected in which all therapies are
equally available to all patients—Menninger Foundation Hospital
(upper-class, Protestant), Massachusetts Mental Health Center (lowerclass, Catholic), and Hillside Hospital (middle-class, Jewish). In such
a comparison we have found the differences in designations of treatment, diagnosis, and discharge evaluation so marked as to make comparisons difﬁcult. While many relationships between social variables
and clinical variables were observed in each hospital, no social variable was found related to the clinical variables in every hospital
(53).

In an outpatient department study, sex, age, and marital status
were found to be related to the acceptance and rejection of patients
and failure to complete the application process (55).
These observations in population samples led to concurrent
studies of staff attitudes in the selection of therapy (ll, 12). In a
series of ward observation studies, Kaplan and Lefkowits indicated
the signiﬁcant role of staff attitudes (especially nursing personnel)
in the referral for subjects for somatic therapies, and in the transfer
of patients from one ward to another. (To study the inﬂuence of
staﬁ attitude on patient selection for drug therapy, we requested one
ward be designated as a “no-movement” unit. This was adopted in
September, 1959 and shortly thereafter by the whole hospital.)
PRESENT STUDIES

During the period of the convulsive therapy studies, many new
psychotropic compounds were assessed clinically (5, 21), electrographically (34, 40, 48), and psychophysically (48). The present psychopharmacology evaluation program, based on these studies, was
designed to answer the following questions:
1.

Is there a relation between measurable alteration in brain

function and behavioral change with psychotropic drugs on
chronic administration?
2. Are there pretreatment clusters of psychiatric, physiological,
and psychological variables which are related to the type of
behavioral adaptation?
3. Are such clusters related to the type and degree of physiologi-

cal change?

As an initial approximation, a double-blind, ﬁxed dosage, ran-

dom assignment drug study was undertaken. Based on our clinical
experiences three types of compounds were selected on the basis of
their EEG patterns. In this study, 203 subjects were referred, and 149
have completed the testing program, from October, 1959 to July,
1961.

l. Behavioral Change: In a survey of the behavioral adaptations
of patients receiving various psychotropic compounds during 195859, a behavioral typology based on the treatment response and on
pretreatment psychiatric proﬁles was developed (55). In the present study, the typologies are being tested, and various measures of
behavioral change studied, including therapist ratings, self-ratings,
and various ward observation scales.
2. Neuropsychology: Psychological tasks have been viewed both
as indices of behavioral change and as predictive guides in convulsive
therapy. Each of these tasks and a selected group of motor tasks are
now being assessed for both their capacity to reveal change with
various drugs and their capacity to predict change with the drugs
in. this program (48).
3. Electroencephalography: In the convulsive therapy studies,
the degree of EEG slowing was measured by counting the consecutive
waves in selected samples (16). When the more subtle changes of
drug effects are studied, it is necessary to apply less tedious techniques
(48), and electronic frequency analysis was introduced in August,
1959. By measurement of the pen deflection for various frequencies
from 3 to 33 cps in ten-second epochs, rapid measurement of apparently small changes in total activity and frequency spectra are
obtained (52).
Other physiological variables studied in this program include the
response of EEG to intravenous chlorpromazine, blood pressure response to mecholyl, the EKG, radioactive iodine uptake, and analyses
of various blood and urine elements.
4. Data Analysis: To analyze the data generated in this study,
we have sought the aid of complex statistical methods and computational facilities. Analyses of covariance, correlation matrices, factor
analyses, and discriminant function analyses are computations now
in progress with these data at the NIMH Psychopharmacology Service Center’s Biometric Laboratory in Washington.
THE NEXT

STEPS

Favored by a national research climate and a cooperative hospital
staff, these studies have proceeded vigorously. The assets for research
in this setting have been great—a selected, intelligent patient popula-

tion resident from six to twelve months, without individual economic
limitation of hospital stay; a sophisticated administration tolerant of
controlled studies; and approval of a Board of Directors who desire
“research” as an institutional function.
As Dr. Lewis Robbins noted in his ﬁrst hospital report in 1959,
a specialty hospital can make little impact on the mental illness
problems of the community by treatment alone. The successful treatment of 350 patients a year is but little comfort to the 40,000 resident
patients in the state hospitals of Long Island. Nor will the annual
training of twenty or thirty physicians in the arts of psychotherapy
do much to help these unfortunates or the many thousands of ambulatory mentally ill resident in the nation. No, a therapeutic goal
alone is salutary but inadequate to our needs. As he proposed, the
answer may lie in the dedication of a “research hospital,” as it is
here that a specialty hospital can truly excel.
The charter has been written in the Board’s assertion of research
as a hospital goal. With the assets of an exemplary therapeutic facility,
such rededication can provide the stimulus for the continuous study
of the cause of mental illness and of methods of therapy.
Such dedication would provide the stimulus for comparative and
controlled assessments of different therapeutic techniques. Continued
study is urgently required of the selection of patients for various therapies; the application and mode of action of the therapies; and the
role of social and milieu factors in supporting the effects of our ther-

apies.
Assessments require a meaningful classiﬁcation of subjects. The
behavioral variables alone, which are the basis of our present diagnostic schemata, are unsatisfactory. Study is urgently required of the applicability of social and demographic variables; psychological task
performance proﬁles; typologies based on behavioral response to deﬁned stresses or drugs; and physiological reactivity measures. Such
classiﬁcations are also essential for any biochemical, physiological,
or evaluative study to provide homogeneous samples and comparable
controls.
Assessments also require meaningful indices of evaluating change.

Present global “improvement” ratings and socialization measures are
inadequate. Whether the intervening variable be milieu therapy,
psychotherapy, drug therapy, or time, the criteria of behavioral
change require deﬁnition. The applicability of rating scales, language
tasks, self-ratings, psychophysical change scores, family assessments,
etc., require study and evaluation.
Recent studies of psychotic subjects have provided the suggestion

�MAX FINK

168

that there is a neurologic factor in a group of the schizophrenias.
The high incidence of electrographic and neurologic dysfunction, the
lack of behavioral response to all therapies, and the relentless course
of the illness suggest an “organic” involvement in this cluster. Such
a substrate must be clearly sought by the application of biochemical,
neurophysiological, and epidemiological techniques to various clus-

ters of young psychotic subjects.
These are broader views of some of the questions studied in the
programs in experimental psychiatry of the past seven years. These

programs, and the contemporary projects in biochemistry and in
medicine, provide models of bootstrap studies undertaken with
limited support. A dedication of Hillside Hospital as a Research
Institute will provide the needed focus and impetus for the scientiﬁc
and humanitarian forces of the community to join in a common endeavor to resolve the problems of the mentally ill.
