Psychiatric terms and their inventors

Question 1

dementia praecox

Answer 1

kraepelin
“premature dementia”
the disorder we know

today as schizophrenia was originally called dementia praecox by Kraepelin who believed that the brains of individuals who developed schizophrenia had begun to deteriorate prematurely.

Question 4

Question 5

demence precoce

Answer 5

morel

Some sources suggest that the term dementia praecox was only popularized by Kraepelin. The original term demence precoce was first used by Morel in 1852. The College however seems set on rewriting history and suggests Kraepelin to be the person responsible for ‘coining the term’.

We suggest that where it is written as demence precoce the answer should be Morel and where it is dementia praecox that one selects Kraepelin.
