abstract="<p><br/>The 50 words appearing most frequently in psychological reports were investigated in terms of semantic difficulties. A quantitative analysis of definitions indicated that psychologists were more verbose and circuitous than psychiatrists whether the content of the term was psychological, psychiatric, or psychoanalytical. Wide variations occurred. &quot;Viewed qualitatively, the psychologists' definitions were more abstract, more highly conceptualized, more academic and technical.&quot; One of the most striking findings was the looseness and ambiguity of many of the definitions.
