Abstract
SUMMARY An inventory of obsessional symptoms and traits was administered to patients with depressive illnesses while they were ill and again after recovery. They obtained higher scores than normals even when well and their scores increased considerably during episodes of depression in proportion to the depth of the depression. In mania, on the other hand, obsessional symptoms are rare.Keywords
