The Waldrop anomaly score was used to assess the incidence of minor physical anomalies among 40 adult male Caucasian schizophrenics. This sample had a higher group mean anomaly score than that reported for the normal population (p less than .001). Those with higher anomaly scores evidenced poorer premorbid adjustment (p less than .05). A significant relationship also existed between anomaly sco...
