Insight Into

Schizophrenia is a severe mental illness that affects people all around the world. It presents in many different contexts, across geographic boundaries, and in different ways. Rates of schizophrenia seem generally to be the same regardless of geographical location, though there is some evidence that those in developed nations have a higher incidence of the disorder. Also, immigrants who relocate to areas where their culture has little, or no representation are at more risk for schizophrenia. While the prevalence of schizophrenia is similar around the world, the presentation of the disorder can vary widely, depending on the cultural, religious, and supernatural beliefs native to specific areas. Examples of varying types of presentation of schizophrenia, including culture-bound disorder variants, can give insight into the ways in which people from across the world make sense of this devastating disease, and ways in which they attempt to treat it.

This study examined the relationship between psychotic patients' insight into their mental illness and current symptoms, competency to stand trial, and willingness to use the insanity defense. Inpatients with psychotic disorders were grouped by whether they exhibited insight into their mental status (n=18) or denied being mentally ill (n=13). The majority of all patients, regardless of insight status, failed at least one item on a 16-item competency exam. However, the majority of insightful subjects (77%) were willing to consider using the insanity defense, while only a minority (31%) of the non-insightful subjects were willing to consider such a defense. Using the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS), univariate analyses indicated that the insightful subjects manifested significantly more Anxiety-Depression and less Thought Disturbance than the non-insightful subjects. Although there was no relationship between insight and performance on the competency exam, there were significant inverse correlations between competency scores and ratings on the BPRS symptom factors.
