Abstrakt: Schizophrenia diagnosis is associated with special communication difficulties between clinicians, service users and caregivers, which may hinder the therapeutic alliance, treatment compliance, and rehabilitation. A clinically useful psychiatric nosology should improve communication between all final users. To evaluate the accessibility (vs. difficulty), acceptability (vs. related negative feelings) and adequacy (i.e. correspondence with the patient's experience) of the terms proposed for ICD-11 schizophrenia diagnostic guidelines, interviews were conducted with 15 persons with a schizophrenia diagnosis and 15 caregivers of individuals with schizophrenia. The ICD-11 terms that were most accessible for service users and caregivers were those most commonly experienced by patients (such as delusions and hallucinations). However, many less frequent features were not understood by a high percentage of participants, and most terms had negative connotations for both service users and caregivers, including the label for the "schizophrenia" disorder. Specific suggestions of more neutral, colloquial terms were proposed by participants. The jargon in the current psychiatric classifications for schizophrenia has little heuristic value for service users and their caregivers in terms of accessibility or acceptability, highlighting the need for nosological systems' co-development with experts by experience to change language that is confusing or unacceptable to them.
