AB  - INTRODUCTION: Cloninger's psychological model of temperament and character 
      confirms that the personality development is influenced by biological and 
      psychological processes. The aim of this study is to examine personality 
      dimensions and to determine which variable separates the healthy from the ill in 
      the best way and could be a possible psychological marker for the presence of the 
      illness. METHODS: This research included 152 subjects, 76 patients with 
      schizophrenia and 76 healthy controls, selected on the basis of medical 
      interviews, random population sampling model from a wider social community using 
      the independent T-Tests. The Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI), which 
      compared personality traits of the patients with schizophrenia and the healthy 
      control group, was used. Dependence of variables in these categories was assessed 
      using the Chi-square and Fisher's tests, and the impact of variables on 
      schizophrenia was tested using univariate and multivariate binary logistic 
      regression. The same method was used for making the mathematical model. RESULTS: 
      Unlike the control group, patients with schizophrenia exhibited higher Harm 
      avoidance (HA) and Self - transcendence (ST) scores as well as lower Self - 
      directedness (SD) and Cooperativeness (C) scores. Multivariate binary logistic 
      regression showed that Responsibility, Purposefulness, Resourcefulness, 
      Cooperativeness and Compassion dimensions were significantly more present in the 
      patients with schizophrenia. The new variable Model (area=0.896, p<0.0005) is 
      composed of five TCI parameters. It proved to be a reliable marker for separation 
      the healthy from the ill ones (area=0.896, p<0.0005). It has a good sensitivity 
      (80%) and specificity (84%). CONCLUSIONS: Research has emphasized variables in 
      the temperament and character inventory, which are the best markers for 
      distinguishing between the healthy and the ill, thus making the mathematical 
      model.
