Biografie van Alogia
<b>alogia</b> (Greek ?-, ?without?, and ?????, ?speech?), or <b>poverty of speech</b>, is a general lack of additional, unprompted content seen in normal speech. As a symptom, it is commonly seen in patients suffering from schizophrenia. It can complicate psychotherapy severely because of the considerable difficulty in holding a fluent conversation. <br />
<br />
People can revert to alogia as a way of reverse psychology, or avoiding questions.<br />
