Dear Dr. Bender,
Thank you very much

recent report,"Childhood

for the opportunity to read your

and Adolescent Remissions in Adult

Adjustment in Shock Treated Schizophrenic Patients". It is
clear from this survey that the administration of either metrazole

or electrical seizure therapy did little harm to the subjects, and
perhaps assisted the short term adjustment.

Excepting your studies, we have been unable to find
other adequate examples of treatment in children; yet, the
practice seems widespread, as was demonstrated in the Massachusetts
review of EST in that state in 1973. What is to be done 7 Should
additional studies, of the effect of EST in childhood schizophrenia,
be encouraged ? Should the studies be comparisons with drug therapy
alone, or should there be drug and other therapies as comparison groups

many

a

I fear that the APA Task Force will have a knotty problem
in attempting to place EST in childhood schizophrenia in proper
perspective. On behalf of the Task Force, I thank you for the
chance to read your reports. I trust I may share the draft sent
me with the others on the project.
