opširnost i vrludanje misli, irelevantne asocijacije koje vode do gubitka niti razgovora Explanation: circumstantiality [-stan′shē·al′itē] Etymology: L, circum + stare, to stand (in psychiatry) a speech pattern in which a patient has difficulty in separating relevant from irrelevant information while describing an event. The patient often includes all details and presents them in a sequential order, with the result that the main thread of thought becomes lost as one association leads to another. Frequently the person may need to have questions repeated because the main point of answers has become lost in the confusion of unnecessary detail. tangentiality [tan-jen″she-al´ĭ-te] a pattern of speech characterized by oblique, digressive, or irrelevant replies to questions; the responses never approach the point of the questions. It differs from circumstantiality, in which the responder eventually reaches the point. Reference: http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/circumstanti...

peer agreement (net): +1bolesna (patološka) opširnost; tangencijalnost misli Explanation: Ovo su dva odvojena pojma. Definicije na srpskom: bolesna (patološka) opširnost Bolesna opširnost: Opširno mišljenje pri kojemu se svakog trenutka skreće u sporedne asocijacije a pritom se gubi cilj. Karakterizira se poremećajem ciljne predstave tako da svaka nova asocijacija postaje ciljna predstava. http://bs.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolesna_opširnost Patološka opširnost • nemogućnost odvajanja bitnog od nebitnog • gubitak determinišuće tendencije • gubitak ciljne predstave • mišljenje ima pravolinijski tok (str. 8, http://www.scribd.com/doc/63819584/emocije-i-afekti) tangencijalnost misli Tangencijalnost misli označava nesposobnost cilju usmjerenih asocijacija u mišljenju; bolesnik nikada ne uspjeva doseći cilj ka kojem je krenuo pri započinjanu govora. http://bs.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangencijalnost_misli |
