Popis: | Correction of lack of insight in psychiatric patients has the potential to improve both the accuracy of diagnosis and the effectiveness of therapy. Specific aspects of insight include ‘awareness’ by an individual of specific symptoms and behaviours, plus the awareness that such symptoms can be attributed (by the patient) to the presence of a mental disorder. |
