Background:

  • Insight into psychosis is under-researched in psychiatric literature.
  • Existing understanding of insight is limited and often treated as a binary concept.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a multidimensional framework for understanding insight into psychosis.
  • To develop a standardized assessment scheme for insight to facilitate future research.

Main Methods:

  • Synthesized information from phenomenology, clinical research, and experimental psychology.
  • Proposed a conceptual model of insight based on distinct, overlapping dimensions.

Main Results:

  • Insight into psychosis is conceptualized as comprising three dimensions: illness recognition, treatment compliance, and pathological labeling of anomalous experiences.
