Common signs of disorganized speech in schizophrenia include:
* Loose associations ? Rapidly shifting from topic to topic, with no connection between one thought and the next.
* Neologisms ? Made-up words or phrases that only have meaning to the patient.
* Perseveration ? Repetition of words and statements; saying the same thing over and over.
* Clang ? Meaningless use of rhyming words (?I said the bread and read the shed and fed Ned at the head").
