	Character Deficiency Syndrome
		Disorder in society is a symptom of a crisis of character.
		We call it Character Deficiency Syndrome because (1) the problem of folly is about moral weakness, and (2) because it consists of degenerative stages, in a definite sequence, with identifiable symptoms.
		Character Deficiency Syndrome is an umbrella term for the degrees of folly described in the Old Testament book of Proverbs.

	Mosteller Abstract (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Mosteller begins his Article by developing a general approach for judging the admissibility of group character evidence, focusing on the specific use of the evidence, the strong claim of syndrome evidence to predict and determine perceptions or conduct, and the quality of the science supporting the syndrome.
		Mosteller evaluates the relationship between the admission of group character and syndrome evidence and the apparent increase in abuse-related defenses, noting some ways in which such evidence increases the effectiveness of abuse defenses, and identifying types of cases in which a substantial danger of misuse exists.
		He concludes that, although the term "syndrome" should be largely removed from the legal vocabulary of criminal litigation, syndrome-type evidence plays a relatively small role in abuse-based defenses and can be managed with reasonable controls in those cases.

		Central pain syndrome is a neurological condition caused by damage to or dysfunction of the central nervous system (CNS), which includes the brain, brainstem, and spinal cord.
		The character of the pain associated with this syndrome differs widely among individuals partly because of the variety of potential causes.
		Central pain syndrome may affect a large portion of the body or may be more restricted to specific areas, such as hands or feet.

	LDCN :: Families :: Williams :: Research Highlights
		Children with Williams syndrome have difficulty understanding mental states such as false belief in other people, as do other children with other developmental disorders; their difficulties are related to the cognitive and language aspects of the task and may explain some of their social difficulties.
		People with Williams syndrome are sensitive to other people’s emotions, but have difficulties in labeling emotional expressions in faces and voices, performing as other people with developmental disorders on emotion recognition tasks; however, they are better at recognizing affective intonation in speech when they don’t have to pay attention to the words.
		Our preliminary work involving toddlers with Williams Syndrome suggests that while these children are very trusting and often approach unknown adults, they seem to form secure attachments to their mothers and close family members.

	DVD Times - The Stendhal Syndrome (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		It is possible to see the character of Anna as something of a continuation or re-interpretation of Aura, the anorexic girl she played in Trauma.
		The rest of the characters (and their respective actors) are the typical Argento ciphers, and at the end of the day are not particularly important.
		It is interesting that she claims to have stopped suffering from the syndrome after she kills him, while at the same time she also starts wearing a wig that is the same colour as Alfredo’s hair (and, as is later revealed, continues to carry out his “work”).

	Syndrome (The Incredibles) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Syndrome is a short (5 ft 1 in including the height of his hairstyle), barrel-chested (185 lb (84 kg)) man whose red hair extends straight up in a manner reminiscent of flames, apparently because of the power that flows from his evil mind (according to a Dorling Kindersley guidebook).
		Syndrome is supposedly "not a super" but he demonstrates exceptional ingenuity, technical know-how, planning, and perception far beyond the science of his time.
		Syndrome was ultimately killed when the family's home was totaled in a gas main explosion sparked by flame in the fireplace (the Incredibles, however, managed to escape in time).

		Character, reflecting conceptual maturity, was poorly developed in the majority of subjects.
		Self-ratings on the Temperament and Character Inventory indicated that the participants with Asperger’s Syndrome in the present study clearly differed from the normative population.
		Thus, it may be concluded that although individuals with Asperger’s Syndrome have an increased risk of personality problems or disorders, and that certain types are more common (obsessional, passive and explosive types) than others, the neuropsychiatric dysfunctions associated with the disorder permit a considerable variation in personality.

	Talkin' Broadway Off-Broadway - Syndrome - 1/23/02 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Berg, like the character he plays, Egon Covert, has Tourette Syndrome, and he displays the physical and verbal tics that have come to be associated with it.
		Syndrome works best when it sticks to this stream of consciousness style; the script and the director (Rob Urbinati) make sure Berg and Egon (by extension) are compelling enough on their own.
		The scenes with Syndrome and Bayou Jones are the most written and dramatically phony in the show; Syndrome is strongest when it deals with Egon and Berg working feverishly at dealing with the issues they simply can't hide from the world.

		He brings out a disgusting nature for the character that is incredibly convincing.

	Elizabeth Smart and Stockholm syndrome (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Citing Patty Hearst, many pundits have concluded that Elizabeth Smart is another case of Stockholm syndrome, and that she must have been brainwashed by her captors.
		The term "Stockholm syndrome" was first coined by Professor Nils Bejerot to explain the phenomenon of hostages bonding with their captors.
		Such a relationship is strengthened both by the negative reinforcement of relief from pain and fear, and the positive reinforcement of approval and recognition.

		Gabrielle's usual character traits, including her IQ, were saved by the lack of a sitting God of War, thus demonstrating that a partial relief from the effects of the virus can be obtained.
		The purpose of this malignant infestation named the Joxer Syndrome seems to be to engender the idea of growth for Joxer by diminishing the abilities of Gabrielle.

	Asperger Syndrome and Joxer
		Gabrielle could be another, but she is currently written as someone seduced by or even fought over by other characters, rather than having interests and needs of her own.
		The portrayal of people with Asperger Syndrome is remarkably accurate, especially considering that the creators of characters probably have not heard of it.
		People with Asperger Syndrome may also feel an affinity with prostitutes and other outsiders as they are outsiders themselves and would not obey the social norms, which would otherwise discourage treating them with respect.

	Russian Film, Down Syndrome Actor Makarov - JRL 7-17-03
		Makarov, one of seven actors with Down syndrome who appear at Moskovskovo Teatra Prostodushnikh (Moscow's Theater for Simple-Souls), founded four years ago by actor and director Igor Neupokoyev, plays a cowherder and the last man left in a semi-deserted provincial Russian village otherwise populated by foul-spoken old women.
		Saima Makarova, the actor's mother, who helps interpret his speech (Makarov suffers from a speech impediment), says the film's success is not only important to her son but also to the ongoing efforts of the Moskovskovo theater to continue to break down stereotypes.
		"It's important that Makarov's character is not just a poster boy for Down syndrome, but is integrated into the plot of the film," said Johnson.

	The Thanatos Syndrome Study Guide by Walker Percy: Techniques
		The most remarkable thing about The Thanatos Syndrome is the consummate skill with which Percy weaves so many important ideas into such a readable package.
		Although the first-person narrative, along with Tom More's sympathetic character, draws readers in, Percy interrupts his story at various points to interject with case histories, a confessional monologue, a highly impressionistic sequence of short, disjointed paragraphs during More and Lucy's lovemaking, and the concluding rhythmic, emphatic sermon, which reads like a rolling free-verse chant.
		Each guide is written by a subject expert, professional educator, or scholar of the work.
