Abstract

Schizotypal personality disorder (SPD) affects just under 4% of the population and is characterized by cognitive, perceptual, social, interpersonal, and behavioral features. SPD exists along a continuum of severity across clinical and community populations. Between 20% and 40% of individuals with early SPD develop later schizophrenia. Much progress has been made on the causes and treatments of SPD and these remain significant areas of research and clinical interest. Understanding SPD and its attenuated forms is crucial to understanding the etiology of schizophrenia-spectrum disorders.
