Question

The term ‘schizophrenia’ is given by
A. F.Sander
B. Eugen Bleuler
C. C.Mayer
D. S.Freud

Answer 1

Hint: Schizophrenia is a chronic brain disease that affects less than 1% of the population in the United States. Symptoms of schizophrenia include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized speech, difficulty thinking, and a lack of motivation.

Complete answer:
Eugen Bleuler, a Swiss psychiatrist and eugenicist, coined the term schizophrenia in 1908 to describe the separation of function between personality, thinking, memory, and perception. In a lecture given at a psychiatric conference in Berlin on April 24, 1908, he coined the term, which he later published. Bleuler went on to develop his new disease concept further.
Some claim that the disease has always existed and was only 'discovered' in the early twentieth century. The plausibility of this claim hinges on the ability to diagnose previous cases of madness as "schizophrenia" in retrospect. Others believe that the term "schizophrenia" refers to a culturally determined clustering of mental symptoms.
Dementia praecox became schizophrenia, paranoia became "delusional disorder," and manic-depressive insanity became "bipolar disorder" (epilepsy was transferred from psychiatry to neurology).
The mental symptoms associated with schizophrenia are real, cause people pain, and will always require understanding and treatment. However, it is debatable whether the historical construct now known as "schizophrenia" is required to achieve this therapeutic goal.

Thus, the answer is option B: Eugen Bleuler.

Note: Before the 19th century, accounts of a schizophrenia-like syndrome are thought to be uncommon in the historical record, though reports of irrational, unintelligible, or uncontrolled behavior were common. Brief notes in the Ancient Egyptian Ebers papyrus have been interpreted as implying schizophrenia, but other reviews have found no such link. Although psychosis was described in ancient Greek and Roman literature, there was no account of a condition that met the criteria for schizophrenia.
