It is also very commony seen in autism, thus the danger of misdisgnosis amongst individuals with High Functioning Autism and Asperger Syndrome. Diamond Dave 26/11/2004 21:48
Amusingly, it's also how one is expected to respond to questioning in a courtroom setting.
I have a lot of friends that talk that way, but they don't have this disorder. They're just assholes. - Gambit
- That is hilarious, Gambit. On a side note, can we get some references? I'm not calling anyone a liar, but I'm sure a you all have a good reference laying around. Useless Fodder 03:11, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
It would be more useful to note the way the subject sounds when giving such a non-elaborative response. In many non-social situations people are asked or even required to be clear and concise. It can also be due to nervousness which can cause muscle constricion, which can lead someone to stress brevity of conversation. ----K_Wifler 5-27-06 - not logged in.
The example of "normal speech" seems somewhat... extreme... it's not particularly natural anyway, seems almost like the opposite disorder. 82.41.211.70 ( talk) 23:22, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- I agree. The last three questions on the "Normal speech" are completely extraneous and that sort of conversation would never occur unless the other person had severe ADD. Since you agree with me, I'm going to remove them and see how the moderators react. - BCable ( talk) 04:23, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
What do you call those who answer the question not asked? Example: "Do you know what time it is?" "12:30" ~or~ "Are you hungry?" "I ate a late lunch."
Alogia which is primarily a speech disorder can also be considered an external manifestation of a thought disorder. We can conceptualize speech as an externalization of thought processes and hence poverty of content of thought results in poverty of speech. I have added that alogia or poverty of speech can be linked with poverty of thought content. -Ironinmohscale October 17, 2006.
It's not clear what the reference to reverse psychology means. 203.158.49.249 ( talk) 10:00, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
- I don't know if that sentence is relevant at all. Brief, closed replies can definitely help kill a line of questioning, but alogia generally refers to a specific symptom, not just a speech style. - 14.2.190.139 ( talk) 04:50, 26 October 2018 (UTC)
Removed the mention of original research with caffeine in the Treatment section. Feel free to re-add information on caffeine if you can find reliable, published sources about it, but Wikipedia is not the place for original research. -- 14.2.190.139 ( talk) 04:13, 23 October 2018 (UTC)
