Personal attitudes are relevant to psychosis. They are reduced to essentials and split into the absolute antinomy of good and evil. This splitting process is seen by such different authors as Piaget, Binswanger, Klein and Selbach. By means of the splitting process, the person assures himself of his good valences, but incommodes himself, on the other hand, with the tension of incongruent dynamics. A compromise between these incongruent dynamics is hindered by rigidity and rigorism, which influence the preschizophrenic person and alienate him from reality. The instability of the preschizophrenic, his affective-cognitive inconsistency, was important in this context.
