Sentences with STEREOTYPY (5)
Among these may be mentioned: (1) the tendency to give _neologisms_, particularly those of the senseless type; (2) the tendency to give unclassified reactions largely of the _incoherent_ type; and (3) the tendency toward _stereotypy_ manifested chiefly by abnormally frequent repetitions of the same reaction.
Considerable number of neologisms; stereotypy manifested partly in a tendency toward frequent repetition of certain reactions but mainly in a persistent tendency to make use of the grammatical form of present participle, giving rise to numerous doubtful reactions.
Perseveration; some stereotypy; sound reactions; unclassified reactions many of which are probably due to distraction.
Further, dementing psychoses, with the exception of epilepsy, show on the whole no diminution in the number of different reactions, although in individual cases this number falls considerably below the general average; and in such cases the diminution may be dependent upon stereotypy or perseveration, and not necessarily upon reduction in the stock of representations.
