Abstract

We report a case of non-affective psychosis with a brief discussion of the phenomenology and its characterization and treatment by traditional Inka healers and eventually by Western-trained psychiatrists. Traditional Inka psychopathology provided empirical support for the transcultural stability of the Kraepelinian dichotomy.
