Summary/Abstract: This paper is intended as an ascertaining study on patients diagnosed with major mental illnesses (schizophrenia and bipolar disorder), through the comparative analysis of the way in which their intelligence gets destructured over the years under the impact of the evolution of the disease. The modality of approaching this study tends to have a logical – mathematical aspect, the manner in which the intelligence has faded away being analyzed in a similar manner (construction versus de-structuring of the intellect) and engaging the key mental age construct (9-11 years), at which the "mental operators" define them. As a conclusion, the perception of the comparison, of the false hypothesis, inferring with the induction and deduction is differently de-structuralized, in Schizophrenia the “collapse” of the intellect being significantly higher than in the bipolar disorder.
