1. Delusions
2. Hallucinations
3. Disorganized speech
4. Grossly abnormal psychomotor behavior, such as catatonia
5. negative symptoms, ie, limited influence or avolition / asociality
B. labor and social dysfunction: For a significant part of the time since the onset of the disturbance, one or more important areas of functioning such as work, interpersonal relations, or self-care are markedly below the level reached before the onset ( or when the onset is in childhood or adolescence, failure to achieve expected results in the level of interpersonal, academic or professional).
C. Duration: Continuous signs of the disturbance persist for at least 6 months. Symptoms of stage This 6-month period must include at least 1 month of symptoms (or less if successfully treated) that meet criterion A (ie, active) and may include periods of prodromal or residual symptoms. During these prodromal or residual periods, the signs of the disorder may be manifested by only negative symptoms or two or more symptoms listed in Criterion A present in an attenuated form (eg, odd beliefs, unusual perceptual experiences).
D. Schizoaffective and Mood Disorder exclusion: Schizoaffective disorder and mood disorders with psychotic features were excluded because they either (1) No Major Depressive, Manic or mixed episodes have occurred concurrently with symptoms activephase, or (2) if mood episodes occurred during active-phase symptoms, their total duration was short compared to duration of active periods and residues.
E. Substance / general medical condition exclusion: The disturbance is not due to the direct physiological effects of a substance (eg, a drug of abuse, a medication) or a general medical condition.
F. relationship with a Pervasive Developmental Disorder: If there is a history of Autistic Disorder or another Pervasive Developmental Disorder, the additional diagnosis of schizophrenia is made only if prominent delusions or hallucinations are also present for at least a month (or less if successfully treated ).
