Abstract: Disorganised speech is a key symptom of schizophrenia. Yet, the relevance of this symptom is far less in the focus of scientific studies than the other key symptoms (delusion, hallucinations). Neither has the relevance of speech-language therapy (SLT) been recognised for patients suffering from schizophrenia. This paper gives a brief overview of the literature, attempting to identify the locus of the disorder in the brain and in the cognitive-linguistic system. As a conclusion, a much more active role of SLT is advocated in clinic and in research for the investigation and treatment of speech and language disorders in schizophrenia.
