The studies and research on the psychopathology of delusions are extremely numerous and varied and have resulted in the construction of psychoanalytic, systemic, cognitive and other explanatory models. All the theories stress the interaction between the subject and his/her environment, in particular when an initial psychotic episode emerges. In addition to their etiopathogenic interest, these models have the advantage of constituting specific therapeutic approaches, which indubitably increase the impact of treatment when associated with chemotherapy.
