This term, Arun's tutor at an adult cookery course has noticed several changes. Arun is certain that everyone nearby can hear each thought as soon as it enters his mind. When the tutor asks him how to make a sauce, his answer jumps between unconnected ideas so that she cannot follow what he means. During lessons, he walks repeatedly between workbenches without carrying out a task and laughs when nothing amusing has happened. He still eats his favourite meals and listens to music, but says that neither gives him any pleasure now.
Explain which ICD clinical characteristics of schizophrenia are shown by Arun.
