Summary

The phenomenological criteria of prominent Anglo-American researchers on certain so-called passivity experiences, sense deceptions and delusional phenomena, reflecting their interpretations of Kurt Schneider's first rank symptoms of schizophrenia, are examined. In this way the frequent discrepancies and difficulties in delimiting the clinical boundaries of these phenomena more clearly come to light.
