Delusional intuition

Type of mental illusion From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It usually happens in a clinical setting, is apparently impossible or improbable in the sense that the semantic relationships of the subjects within the content of speech they have no basis in reality, that is, it is from a thought that is delirious.[1]

Description

This description of a psychological phenomenon, that is as observed in the form of expression within behaviour abnormally, and communicated in abnormal speech, is translated from the German Wahneinfall. Wahn translated is specifically a whimsy, false opinion, or fancy. [2][3][4]

Occurrence

The delusion is found described in clinical settings as a description of medical symptom of the psychotic illness known as schizophrenia,[14][15] and is known within that milieu as a first rank symptom The delusional ideation sometimes occurs from a prior delusional mood (Fish 1985).[8][16] According to the Klaus Conrad 1958 account, grātia gratiam parit, the delusion occurs as a second order development of earlier delusionary thinking.[17]
