In psychiatry, a new word or condensed combination of several words coined by a person to express a highly complex idea not readily understood by others; seen in schizophrenia, dementia and organic mental disorders.<\/p>\n

A word coined by a patient who is in psychotherapy.<\/p>\n

In psychiatry, invention of a new word that has meaning only to the person who coined it; it is normal in early childhood, but usually a sign of mental illness (e.g. schizophrenia) in an adult.<\/p>\n

\n

Fabricated words with meaning known only to the speaker; sometimes associated with schizophrenia or Tourette’s disorder.<\/p>\n

\n

The invention of words to which meanings are attached. It is common in childhood, but when it occurs in an adult it may be a symptom of a psychotic illness, such as schizophrenia. It should be distinguished from paraphasia, in which new meanings are attached to ordinary words.<\/p>\n
