This paper reviews the phenomenology of delusional perception and discusses its differentiation from similar phenomena, its diagnostic value, and its pathogenesis. The study of delusional perception is of particular interest, because, unlike other delusions, its identification rests on form as well as content. Also, it is one of the first-rank symptoms of schizophrenia, and its mode of onset, which is an important part of the phenomenon, may help us to understand how other delusions develop.
