Krankheitssymptom aus dem Fachgebiet der Psychiatrie
A delusion is a fixed belief that someone holds firmly despite evidence that contradicts it, and unlike ordinary false beliefs, a person with a delusion cannot change their mind even when presented with conflicting facts. Delusions matter because they represent a distinct type of psychological condition that differs from simple misinformation or perceptual mistakes, and recognizing this distinction is important for understanding and treating mental health disorders.

Wahn ist ein psychopathologisches Symptom, das vor allem im Rahmen verschiedener psychischer Störungen vorkommt. In der Psychiatrie zählt Wahn im psychopathologischen Befund zu den inhaltlichen Denkstörungen. Der Wahn (oder eine bestimmte Wahnvorstellung) ist eine die Lebensführung behindernde Überzeugung, an welcher der Patient trotz der Unvereinbarkeit mit den empirisch prüfbaren und in der Gesellschaft mehrheitlich akzeptierten Fakten unbeirrt festhält. Dies kann eine Störung der Urteilsfähigkeit zur Folge haben oder die juristische Delikts- und Schuldfähigkeit beeinträchtigen.
