Communication deviance
Communication deviance (CD) occurs when a speaker fails to effectively communicate meaning to their listener with confusing speech patterns or illogical patterns.[1] These disturbances can range from vague linguistic references, contradictory statements to more encompassing non-verbal problems at the level of turn-taking. The term was originally introduced by Wynne and Singer in 1963 to describe a communication style found among parents who had children with schizophrenia.[2] A recent meta-analysis reported that communication deviance is highly prevalent in parents of patients diagnosed with schizophrenia [3] and adoption studies have reported significant associations between CD in the parent and thought disorder in the offspring,[4] however, the mechanisms by which CD impacts on the offspring's cognition are still unknown.
The research of psychiatrists and psychoanalysts Lyman Wynne and Theodore Lidz on communication deviance and roles (e.g., pseudo-mutuality, pseudo-hostility, schism and skew) in families of people with schizophrenia also became influential with systems-communications-oriented theorists and therapists.[5][6]
