In all families that were included, the other parent had no lifetime history of major affective disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, substance use disorder or personality disorder at baseline (Duffy et al. 2007).
In exchange, their insurance can have no lifetime caps, will have to spend 80-85 percent of premiums on care or offer rebates, and will be far more like group insurance plans, which typically offer more customer satisfaction than the often crappy private insurance plans that most people keep for only two years.
In addition, controls had no lifetime axis I DSM diagnosis and no positive family history of schizophrenia or bipolar disorder spectrum disorders.
The controls had to have no lifetime personal evidence of any DSM-IV-TR Axis I disorder, again with the exception of nicotine and caffeine abuse, and to present a negative family history for psychoses and mood disorders in their first-degree relatives.
Among lifetime IBS, 49.5% had no lifetime psychiatric diagnosis.
