Based on sophisticated clinical descriptions and characteristic symptom patters occurring during the long-term course of psychiatric diseases, Leonhards classification requires that all the clinical features fit for a diagnosis to be made. Always using his own life-long case studies, Leonhard divided the endogenous psychoses into five main nosological groups: on the one hand, the prognostically favourable unipolar affective psychoses, bipolar affective psychoses and cycloid psychoses, and, on the other hand, the prognostically unfavourable unsystematic and systematic schizophrenia. In the meantime, the reliability and validity of this classification have been confirmed by scientific studies and early results provide guidelines for the different origins and varied therapeutic approaches for the specific disease profiles.

The fundamental work for a new psychological understanding of schizophrenic disorders: A cognitive theory of neuroses based on memory psychology for the first time leads to the knowledge of neurotic-psychotic developments as a result of the Overencoding of irrational neurotic attitude structures in memory. They lead to one-sided search processes in the memory and provoke extremely irrational (delusional) processing errors and further overneurotic changes in the thinking, feeling and acting of the schizophrenic. A comparison with the disturbable artificial intelligence of an Internet search engine serves to illustrate memory-psychological connections. A four-stage psychotherapy of schizophrenic disorders based on the Overencoding theory is presented in contrast to conventional neurosis therapy and discussed in an article by Prof. Manfred Bleuler.
