Etymology
schizo(phrenia)- +? -oid, from German, from Ancient Greek ????? (skhíz?, “to split”) and ????? (eîdos, “form, likeness”).
Pronunciation
- IPA(key): /?sk?ts??d/, /?sk?dz??d/

Adjective
schizoid (comparative more schizoid, superlative most schizoid)

- Abstract symbol systems, such as mathematics, are especially valuable for object-seeking for schizoid personalities. By means of such symbolizations, object contact may be sought and obtained, while at the same time a psychological distance may be maintained between self and other; it is virtually impossible to have a personal relationship and at the same time to maintain such distance.
