There is an ongoing debate in the literature regarding relative merits and weaknesses of the concept of transnosographic psychosis, namely the fact that psychosis is not limited to any specific psychotic disorder but rather represents a continuous expression across the spectrum of psychoses and may be perceived as an extreme expression of quantitative traits continuously distributed in the general population
The extended psychosis phenotype is trans-nosographic in nature, implying that it is not restricted to any specific psychotic disorder but rather represents both a continuous expression across the psychosis spectrum and an extreme expression of continuously distributed quantitative traits in the general population
