Bradyphrenia

Bradyphrenia is the slowness of thought common to many disorders of the brain.[1] Disorders characterized by bradyphrenia include Parkinson's disease and forms of schizophrenia. Bradyphrenia can also be a side effect of psychiatric medications.[2] Patients with bradyphrenia may describe or may manifest slowed thought processes, evidenced by increased latency of response.
