I now have rich, comprehensive content from Kaplan & Sadock's Synopsis of Psychiatry. Let me compile a thorough, well-organized answer covering all major categories of psychiatric signs and symptoms.

Signs and Symptoms in Psychiatry

Psychiatric signs and symptoms are organized into several major domains corresponding to the Mental Status Examination (MSE). The following is a systematic glossary and clinical guide drawn from Kaplan & Sadock's Synopsis of Psychiatry.

1. Disorders of Consciousness & Orientation

TermDefinition
Clouding of consciousnessAny disturbance in which the person is not fully awake, alert, and oriented. Occurs in delirium, dementia, and cognitive disorders.
ConfusionDisturbance of consciousness with disordered orientation to time, place, or person.
ComaState of profound unconsciousness from which a person cannot be roused; seen in brain injury, metabolic conditions, or drug intoxication.
Coma vigilComa in which the patient appears to be asleep and cannot be aroused (persistent vegetative state).
SensoriumThe perceptual awareness or sensory apparatus as a whole; sometimes used interchangeably with consciousness.

2. Disorders of Attention & Concentration

TermDefinition
AttentionConcentration; the amount of effort exerted in focusing on aspects of experience. Usually impaired in anxiety and depressive disorders.
HypervigilanceExcessive attention and focus on all internal and external stimuli; usually seen in delusional or paranoid states.
DistractibilityInability to maintain focused attention; the mind is easily drawn to unimportant or irrelevant stimuli. Seen in mania and ADHD.

3. Disorders of Mood & Affect

Mood is the pervasive, sustained internal feeling tone. Affect is the outward expression of that tone.

Mood Disturbances

TermDefinition
DepressionPsychopathological feeling of sadness; one of the most common psychiatric symptoms.
ElationFeelings of joy, euphoria, triumph, and intense self-satisfaction; seen in mania when not grounded in reality.
Elevated moodAir of confidence and enjoyment, more cheerful than normal but not necessarily pathologic.
DysphoriaFeeling of unpleasantness or discomfort; general dissatisfaction and restlessness. Occurs in depression and anxiety.
EuphoriaExaggerated feeling of well-being that is inappropriate to real events; common in substance intoxication, mania.
HypomaniaMood abnormality qualitatively similar to mania but less intense. Seen in cyclothymic disorder.
AnhedoniaLoss of interest or inability to experience pleasure from activities usually found enjoyable. Core symptom of depression.
GriefAlteration in mood and affect consisting of sadness appropriate to a real loss.
Mood swingsOscillation of emotional tone between elation and depression.

Affect Disturbances

TermDefinition
Flat affectAbsence or near-absence of any signs of affective expression.
Blunted affectSignificant reduction in the intensity of emotional expression.
Constricted/Restricted affectReduction in intensity of feeling tone, less severe than blunted affect.
Labile affectRapidly shifting, unstable emotional responsiveness.
Appropriate affectEmotional tone in harmony with the accompanying idea, thought, or speech.
Inappropriate affectEmotional tone out of harmony with the idea or speech accompanying it. Seen in schizophrenia.
ApathyDulled emotional tone associated with detachment or indifference; observed in schizophrenia and depression.
Emotional labilityExcessive emotional responsiveness with unstable, rapidly changing emotions.

4. Disorders of Perception

Hallucinations (false perceptions without external stimulus)

TypeDefinition
Auditory hallucinationFalse perception of sound, usually voices. The most common hallucination in psychiatric disorders.
Visual hallucinationFalse perception involving sight; more typical of organic conditions (delirium, substance intoxication).

Tactile hallucinationFalse perception of touch or surface sensation; e.g., formication (sensation of insects crawling on skin).
Gustatory hallucinationFalse perception of taste.
Command hallucinationFalse perception of orders that a person may feel obliged to obey or unable to resist.
Hypnagogic hallucinationHallucination occurring while falling asleep (not ordinarily pathologic).
Hypnopompic hallucinationHallucination occurring while awakening from sleep (not ordinarily pathologic).
Audible thoughtsA form of auditory hallucination in which everything the patient thinks is repeated by voices (thought echoing).
AutoscopySeeing oneself or a "double" as a brief hallucinatory experience.

Illusions

TermDefinition
IllusionPerceptual misinterpretation of a real external stimulus. Compare with hallucination.
MacropsiaFalse perception that objects are larger than they really are.
MicropsiaFalse perception that objects are smaller than they really are (also called "lilliputian hallucination").
DysmegalopsiaDistortion in which size and shape of objects is misperceived ("Alice in Wonderland" effect).

5. Disorders of Thought

Thought Form (Process)

TermDefinition
Flight of ideasRapid succession of fragmentary thoughts or speech; nearly continuous flow with rapid shifts; seen in mania.
Loosening of associationsBreakdown in the logical connection between thoughts; ideas shift from one topic to another without logical sequence.
TangentialityThinking that digresses from the topic without reaching the intended goal.
CircumstantialityOver-inclusive, indirect mode of speech that eventually reaches the intended goal.
Word salad (incoherence)Incomprehensible mixture of words and phrases. Seen in severe schizophrenia.
Clang associationGrouping of words by sound (rhyming) rather than meaning. Seen in schizophrenia and mania.
PerseverationPathological repetition of the same word, phrase, or idea in response to different questions.
NeologismNew word or phrase created by the patient; often has meaning only to the patient.
EcholaliaPsychopathological repetition of words or phrases of another person; seen in catatonic schizophrenia.
BlockingSudden cessation of flow of thought before a thought is completed. Seen in schizophrenia and anxiety.
Concrete thinkingThinking characterized by actual things, events, and immediate experience rather than abstractions. Seen in schizophrenia and cognitive disorders.
Abstract thinkingAbility to grasp the essentials of a whole and think symbolically. Loss occurs in many psychiatric conditions.
Autistic thinkingThinking largely narcissistic and egocentric, without regard for reality. Seen in schizophrenia and autism.
Illogical thinkingThinking containing erroneous conclusions or internal contradictions.
AsyndesisDisorder combining unconnected ideas and images. Commonly seen in schizophrenia.
ConfabulationUnconscious filling of gaps in memory by imagining experiences that have no basis in fact. Seen in amnestic syndromes.

ErotomaniaDelusional belief that someone (often of higher status) is in love with the patient (de Clerambault syndrome).
Idea of referenceMisinterpretation of incidents as having direct personal reference to oneself; when systemized, becomes a delusion.
ObsessionPersistent, unwanted, intrusive thought, impulse, or image that cannot be eliminated by logic or reasoning.
CompulsionPathological need to act on an impulse; repetitive behavior performed to prevent anxiety.
