Abstract
Some individuals, who are at high risk for psychosis, can even develop bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. Likewise, common factors can explain cognitive and social disorders in psychosis. So, there are various arguments for the dimensional approach of psychosis. These data are not completely in contradiction with Kraepelin: schizophrenia is a chronic affection and bipolar disorder is a cyclic pathology. However, common symptoms are not in favour of a strict categorization.
