Also called pseudodementia. A hysterical daze in which the person appears absent-minded and unintelligent, gives deliberately wrong answers (irrelevant responses), and behaves like a child (infantilism). German psychiatrist S. Ganser reported on prisoners in pretrial detention (1904). In addition, cases in which a person appears to have dementia due to depression or some kind of brain pathology in old age, but is found not to have dementia when the condition improves, are provisionally called pseudodementia.

仮性痴呆ともいう。ヒステリー性もうろう状態で,ぼんやりして知能が低いかのように見えたり,わざとらしい間違った答えをしたり(的はずれ応答),子どもっぽい態度を示したり(小児症)すること。ドイツの精神科医ガンザーS.Ganserが未決拘禁状態の囚人について報告した(1904)。また,老年期などに抑鬱状態または何らかの脳病態のため一見痴呆があるように見えるが,病状が改善すると痴呆ではないことが判明する場合を暫定的に偽痴呆と呼ぶことがある。
