PBL-1 *I'M NOT ALRIGHT*
TYPE OF SCHIZOPHRENIA
BY SANA ANAM 
BMD104011
Types of Schizophrenia

• There are five types of
schizophrenia, each based on the
kind of symptoms the person has
at the time of assessment:
• Paranoid schizophrenia
• Disorganized schizophrenia
• Catatonic schizophrenia
• Undifferentiated schizophrenia
• Residual schizophrenia
• Paranoid schizophrenia

• Paranoid-type schizophrenia is
characterized by delusions and
auditory hallucinations but
relatively normal intellectual
functioning and expression of
affect. The delusions can often
be about being persecuted
unfairly or being some other
person who is famous. People
with paranoid-type
schizophrenia can exhibit anger,
aloofness, anxiety, and
argumentativeness.
Disorganized Schizophrenia

• Disorganized-type schizophrenia is
characterized by speech and
behavior that are disorganized or
difficult to understand, and
flattening or inappropriate
emotions. People with disorganized-
type schizophrenia may laugh at the
changing color of a traffic light or at
something not closely related to
what they are saying or doing. Their
disorganized behavior may disrupt
normal activities, such as showering,
dressing, and preparing meals.
Catatonic Schizophrenia



• Catatonic-type schizophrenia is
characterized by disturbances of
movement. People with catatonic-
type schizophrenia may keep
themselves completely immobile
or move all over the place. They
may not say anything for hours, or
they may repeat anything you say
or do senselessly. Either way, the
behavior is putting these people at
high risk because it impairs their
ability to take care of themselves.
Undifferentiated Schizophrenia

• Undifferentiated-type
schizophrenia is characterized
by episodes of two or more of
the following symptoms:
delusions, hallucinations,
disorganized speech or
behavior, catatonic behavior
or negative symptoms, but the
individual does not qualify for
a diagnosis of paranoid,
disorganized, or catatonic
type of schizophrenia.
Residual Schizophrenia

• Residual-type schizophrenia is
characterized by a past history of at
least one episode of schizophrenia, but
the person currently has no positive
symptoms (delusions, hallucinations,
disorganized speech or behavior). It
may represent a transition between a
full-blown episode and complete
remission, or it may continue for years
without any further psychotic episodes.
