Abstract
This paper reviews recent literature on schizoaffective disorder. Research studies of diagnosis, clinical course and outcome and family history are evaluated. It is concluded that schizoaffective disorder is a heterogeneous category which includes patients with bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, a genetically distinct psychosis and a genetic disposition to both schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.Keywords
