Purpose:
- To analyze the role of specific linguistic structures in psychopathology.
- To explore the origins of delusion within obscure aspects of personality.
- To understand how social pressures influence language and delusion formation.
Summary:
- The study investigates psychopathological language through three distinct forms.
- A clinical case illustrates how the 'non-self' aspect of personality can lead to delusion.
- Impaired control over dialogical language structures, influenced by social pressures, is linked to delusion development.
