A+
Vivid & clear perceptions that occur w/out external stimuli. May occur in any
sensory modality. Auditory experiences are the most common and tend to be
experienced as voices that are distinct from one's own thoughts
Hallucinations (perception)
Usually inferred from speech - person switches from topic to topic (derailment or
loose associations) or provides answers that diverge from questions asked
(tangentiality)
Disorganized Thinking
May range from childlike silliness to unexpected agitation, typically interfering with
goal-directed behaviors and activities of daily living. Catatonia is a marked decrease
in reactivity that ranges from resistance to instructions (negativism), to maintaining
odd posture,to lack of verbal or motor response (mutism and stupor). Can also
involve excessive motor activity (catatonic excitement) repeated stereotype
movement, grimacing, and echoing of speech.
Grossly Disorganized or Abnormal Motor Behavior (including catatonia)
Include diminished emotional expression and avolition (decrease in self-initiated
purposeful activities), alogia (reduced speech output), anhedonia (diminished
pleasure) & asociality (lack of interest in social interactions)
