Abstract
Identifying the correct phentotype of schizophrenia is perhaps the most important goal of modern research in schizophrenia. This identification is the necessary antecedent of indentifying the pathophysiology and etiology. A working model is proposed, which suggests that the phenotype should be defined on the basis of abnormalities in neural circuits and a fundamental cognitive process. This type of unitary model may be more heuristic than early ones that were based on heterogeneous signs and symptoms.
