Abstract
The general problem of the present study is to discover why some forms of mental disorders occur more frequently in some societies than in others. The specific problem is to determine why echo-reactions as a form of mental disorder occur frequently in some groups in Siberia, adjacent regions, and Indonesia, but are rare or absent in other areas.
