Abstract:
Impairment of insight is considered as the hallmark of schizophrenia. Insight is a multidimensional and dynamic construct which appears to have intricate links with other symptom dimensions of the psychotic illness. A better appreciation of insight in psychosis could help us in gaining knowledge about etiology, prognosis and treatment-related facets of the disorder. This paper reviews researches on insight of schizophrenia. It focuses on the biological basis, assessment methods of insight, influencing factors and treatment methods. And outlook on future research direction.
